Really. Although I've been forced to read this book (and see the less than
wonderful movie) one too many times, it is a good, important book. Though I
haven't read it recently enough to remember if it contained any offensive
language, it's apparent that the theme of death of a friend can be portrayed in
a way that isn't deemed "healthy" by bigoted parents. And there are other
aspects that I can't quite describe right now that might be objected to.
