I was (pleasantly) surprised when my 9th grade English teacher put this on book on the assignments list, since most of the other teachers at my school would have avoided it for its themes and language.
It was also amusing to see the class reaction when he tried discussing it in class.
Most people hadn't read it, and when he tried to get our reactions to some of the more taboo stuff, everyone's facial expression changed to "I've got to go read this now".
