Actually, I don't "like it" but you know what I mean. Over the centuries there have been a number of books banned or challenged in the UK, but when it comes to banning books in the 20th century and beyond, forget the Nazis, the Soviets, the Chinese or even the Spanish Inquisition. Nope, the Yanks keep on reminding us why we in Europe, and especially we in the UK, were right to ship so many religious fruitcakes and assorted nutters across the Atlantic in the 17th century.
Go on - Freak a Fruitcake: read a book they want to ban - and then give it to someone else to read. You know it makes sense.
