Debate about whether to love--or loathe--this book has kept it atop recommended reading lists for years. While it does contain swearing, it all fits within the schema of the novel.

Salinger has created a masterpiece with his flowing prose, heartfelt descriptions, and engaging characters. No matter what you have heard, give this book a go.
