That’s too bad - Petunjuk Membuat Azimat dan Benda Bertuah
is one of my all time favorites.
Looks like I have my summer reading list filled. There must be dozens more that aren’t on this list. Most of these sound tame compared to the more recent ones.
I am happy for the authors who made this list. Their sales should go up nicely.
The truth is enemy of evil
Evil cannot abide the truth.
I take it ‘The Satanic Verses’ was already banned?
This was published in 1001 when Islam was on few radar screens as a world wide threat.
It remains amazingly prescient.
