My knowledge of banned literary classic books is rather minimal, but I will say this. If I we’re Salman Rushdie, I would not even think for a macro-second of ever going to Iran. What balls he had, but good for him as well.

So, what are some of the books you have in mind?

Hm, more specifically, who banned a given book, where, and why. For instance, I had no idea The Crucible was banned anywhere.

I like the list but I’d like you to go a little more into why each book was/is controversial.

I was hoping to see “Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas” by Hunter S. Thompson, but…….Oh Well.

I’ve read 8 of the 15 and it is very sad that any book gets banned. Out of curiosity, would you happen to know WHY some of these are banned because I just don’t see the reasoning behind it. Thank you for this list as it gives me a reading list (the 7 I have not gotten to….and the 8 I have just as a refresher)

Interesting list, and while it is obvious why some of these books may be banned, some I’d like to know what the fuss is all about.
