Anyone here know of any short stories that deals with a failed artist wishing he had paid more attention to his family/friends instead of focusing on his art/career his whole life? Bonus points if it's very symbolic. Basically looking for the literary version of LCD Soundsystem's All My Friends, or the artistic version of John Cheever's The Swimmer? Or even A Christmas Carol, I guess.

Try De Daumier-Smith's Blue Period by Salinger.

Appreciate the recommendation.

I found a pdf of Nine Stories here ( http://materlakes.enschool.org/ourpages/auto/2013/2/25/50973306/Nine_Stories_by_J_D__Salinger.pdf ) if anyone is interested in reading it as well. I'd recommend A Good Day for Bananafish as well. Haven't read anything else in it though.
