Censor / Ed: Brave New World?
http://lib-censor-ed.blogspot.com/2008/11/brave-new-world.html
Books are a gray area. Sunday, November 23, 2008. I came across this article from earlier this month up in Idaho, how a school board is trying to prevent the use of Brave New World in ciriculum. What got me most was its satirical tone. Http:/ www.spokesmanreview.com/local/story.asp? Yes, please, let's block a book that's over 70 years old. That literature is bound to start a fire any day now. Labels: Brave New World. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Blogs on Censorship and Intellectual Freedom.

While talking to a friend, I realized that I was under a rock, because there has been. However this was not because of the supernatural forces, but because of age appropriate materials. It turns out that in an Orange County school district, the books were banned for about 4 days, then inexplicably returned to library shelves.

An author is able to connect to readers around the world, and learn the effect of their writing. Http:/ klgoing.wordpress.com/2007/03/.
