| | | | | We Didn't Start the Fire: Encyclopedia II - The Catcher in the Rye - Controversy The Catcher in the Rye has been shrouded in controversy since its publication. Reasons for banning have been the use of offensive language, premarital sex, alcohol abuse, and prostitution. According to some extremist theories, the book is an FBI or CIA tool for mind control.
