Why is he ao controversial? He seems to be an author people love or hate?

I think he's in the middle but why does he get such strong reactions from both sides?

Read ham on rye

i actually didn't expect ham on rye to be that touching, it's a very sad book considering there are a lot of funny moments. Community college is the best part.
