My top choice is Catch-22 by Joseph Heller. The film clip pretty much gives you the lay of the land.
List of commonly banned books in the US via wikipedia.
Sept. 25 to Oct. 1 is banned books week.
Exercise your right to read freely.
Sherman Alexie’s The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian is also one of my favorite bad books. And Kurt Vonneguts’s Slaughterhouse-Five is another dark keeper from the usual banned books suspects. I have to admit that unlike the other two books which make you laugh and cry, Slaughterhouse-Five seriously lacks in the laughs column. But it’s a powerful book about the horror of war.
So what books would you stand up for in the age of manipulative mind control?

Shoot – I always post something on Banned Book week. That’s how I know I have too much work on my desk!
Glad you did it. 🙂 I have “Catch-22” on my bookshelf – still haven’t gotten to it. Reading “Like Water for Chocolate”. I think you’d really like it. OK – gotta run!

Yes, I do LIKE –“Like Water for Chocolate.”
Reading “Catch-22” has consequences. Consider yourself forewarned.
Too much work is Too much.
