Praise and Criticism Salinger's tale of the human condition is fascinating and enlightening, yet incredibly depressing named by Modern Library and its readers as one of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. the most censored book and second most taught book in the US What's so cool about a guy flunking out of school and doing all those stupid things? Holden is just a stupid jerk. The Catcher in the Rye is from the heart -- not Holden Caulfield's heart, Salinger's. He said everything he had to say in it, which may well be why he has said nothing else.
