John is a loner, who doesn't express his feelings except in his zine "Bananafish". When he meets Marisol, the author of his favourite zine "Escape Velocity", he finally can talk about his feelings with a human being. Her frankness about her life (she calls herself a "rich spoiled lesbian private-school gifted-and-talented writer virgin.") opens John's eyes. Love proves itself hard when John realizes his feelings for Marisol are more than platonic. While Marisol struggles with how to let John down gently without losing her best friend.
