Banned Books - Brave New World

                          



Brave New World - Aldous Huxley   (1932)
The other great dystopia from the middle 20th Century was banned in Ireland immediately, in the sixties in India and in various American states, all for its description of casualised sex – a satire that now seems quaint. As late as 1980 it was removed from Missouri classrooms and was still controversial in 1990’s California.
