I’m sorry. After looking through that list, I’m going to have to call BS on this smear. The Bastard by John Jakes is a favorite of mine. Knowing Sarah Palin, I’ll bet it’s a favorite of hers also.

“One Day in The Life of Ivan Denisovich by Alexander Solzhenitsyn”

No way she’d ban this one.

“A Separate Peace by John Knowles”

Or this (National Review called it a masterpiece).

“Brave New World by Aldous Huxley”

Or this. Or several others.

“Confessions by Jean-Jacques Rousseau”
“The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood”
“The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger”

These can go. I won’t miss them.

“The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain”

Isn’t it ironic that this book is burned only because of political correctness (there’s a very naughty word in there).

“The Merchant of Venice by William Shakespeare”

This one too. Will was such an anti-semite.

The Bastard was made into a made for t.v. movie. I doubt it would be on anyone’s banned book list.
