Best Answer

J.D. Salinger didn't care that The Catcher in the Rye was banned. He was a man, like Holden, who didn't care what the outside world thought. He just wanted to get his ideas on paper and share them so people can become better people. He didn't care how it was perceived. He just wanted people to realize how fake and materialistic we have all become, and in a way most relatable.
