Five famous writers of banned books

Five famous writers of banned books

But he is a regular in college textbooks.

2008,   When Philips Pullman learned that his new book, the Golden Compass, had become the most forbidden book in the country's public books, he said he could use "jubilation" to describe his mood at that time. For authors, the ban will not only give the book free publicity, but also increase its sales, because readers will retrieve the book outside the library, for example, in a bookstore, so they will have to buy it. Nowadays, for the vast majority of authors, once their books are noticed, even any kind of attention, they will be very grateful. However, in these works, like 50 Shades of Grey, libraries and schools are still reluctant to include pornographic books that even grandmothers are reading because they think the book is dangerous or subversive.

on the other hand, paradoxically, some of the works of many writers in the 20th century will be banned in one sense or another, because for many great thinkers, the language or thought of the work is destined to be rejected. Of course, such books are still at the top of the college reading list, which means that the works of Pullman, Susan Collins, Stephen King, John Irving, and other authors may have been strictly banned by the school library, but at the same time, these great men have become a role model for colleges and universities. To understand some banned authors, please continue to read.

Mark Twain by Geoffrey C. Ward, Ken Burns, Dayton Duncan (Mark Twain by Geoffrey C. Ward, Ken Burns, and Dayton Duncan)

in 1885, the public libraries of Kant and MIT decided to ban Mark Twain's new book, The Adventures of Huckleberry. The committee rejected the book on the grounds of improper grammar and spicy language, and Twain, as before, made an ironic rebuttal, admitting that his novels were not suitable for children because he was a child. He was also completely infringed by reading some inappropriate publications, and the inappropriate reading material was the Bible. In this biography, the author describes Twain as an iconic figure in banned literature and describes his life and its incredible side.

Kurt Vonnegut: letters (Kurt Vonnegut: Letters by Kurt Vonnegut)

in Vonnegut's novels, his language may be bitter, ironic, or witty, but when he heard that the Board of Education was trying to ban his work, he took it very seriously. He also wrote impassioned letters defending slaughterhouse 5, in which the inspector, the man for blasphemy and sex, was considered immoral. When a copy of the book was burned at a high school in North Dakota in 1973, Vonnegut wrote to the principal: "some members of your committee think my work is evil." this is a great insult to me. Derek's news made me realize that you people always think that books and authors are untrue. I am writing this letter to tell you how real I am.

author of Salinger: Sean Salerno and David Shields (Salinger by Shane Salerno and David Shields)

30 years after its publication, Salinger's famous novel the Catcher in the Rye is the most banned book in American public high schools and the second most taught. Over the years, there have been all kinds of objections to the legend of Holden's life in the United States. Some people think that Holden is addicted to smoking, as it is said in the book, while others think that their main purpose is a sociopath. In addition, the book has always been defined as a controversial novel, which greatly increased the popularity of the book in the coming decades. In this new autobiography, Hilton and Salem describe Salinger's life before and after writing the Catcher in the Rye.

Steinbeck: life in the letter & nbsp; author: John Steinbeck (Steinbeck: A Life in Letters by John Steinbeck)

normally, censors try to ban books on a moral level, but for Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath, the ban is purely political. The novel profoundly depicts the hunger and difficulties faced by the immigrant Joads in Kent, California. As soon as the work was published, the Agricultural Union rebelled and even held a book-burning campaign. Steinbeck is a socialist, but also said that he exaggerated the difficulties faced by the Joads, and his work promoted the left. In sorting out Steinbeck's books, we found out his real purpose in writing the book and between mice and Men (a banned work).

Mockingbird author: Charles Shields (Mockingbird by Charles Shields)

Harper Lee kept quiet about the subject of her beloved novel after creating Kill a Mockingbird. In 1966, when she heard that Hanover, Virginia's Board of Education decided to impose a ban on her book, She could no longer remain silent. In a letter to an editor of a local newspaper, she wrote: when I heard someone say that this novel was immoral, I began to think about many things from 1984 to the present. Maybe I haven't come across a better example of double thinking. However, I think the crux of the problem is that they are illiterate, not Marxists. Therefore, I donated some money to the Pedoubarber Foundation in the hope that this novel will first be recognized by the Hanover County Board of Education.
