If it's not an author still living, is it "Catcher in the Rye"?

It isn't any of the authors or books mentioned, but is considered an important work of American literature.

That was recommended to me years ago by a work colleague who came from Kenya and I still haven't gotten round to reading it.
Would somebody like to jump in and take my turn? I'm just about to finish work and go home to bed so won't be answering questions for quite some time. First in, best dressed.

The Awakening?
Written in the 20th century?

Not "The Awakening".
Yes, I was written in the 20th Century.
To clarify, I am considered by many to be a classic, but same do consider me too young a novel to have the title of classic.

I'm pretty sure there's a movie, though I haven't seen it.
