  • Because of the type of ban you're referring to, where, and when it was imposed.
  • It was banned for decades in Spain, where it was supporting the Communist Republicans who lost the Spanish Civil War.
  • The book was also clearly anti-war, and it was not accepted in the United States at the start of World War II, which resulted in it being banned from government libraries.
  • Public libraries and local schools in the United States have banned many types of books for various reasons, some of them obvious and some not.
  •  Regarding this book, the ban on libraries was based on their communist tendencies, which reflected the policies of Ernest Hemingway, as the book was derived from his personal experiences there.
  •  Hemingway was a communist sympathizer and more opposed to the war.
  • Partially blocked in local areas, as it is graphic sexual content.
