It was written long ago and considered foul mouthed and blastfamy.
One line in the book when Curley's wife says to Crooks (a black stable buck) "Listen little n*****! I could have you lynched up on a f***ing tree in a second if I really wanted too." This quote cause the book to be banned from library bookshelves and schools refused to teach it. This is especially true in the south, where they are afraid to admit their hatred against others. people were afraid to admit the reality to the situation, and ignorant media headlines criticized him. [Even I didn't want to edit it for historical purposes, but the site makes you.]
