Why ban books when you can give them away? Well, we believe that an answer to that question lies somewhere between our friends at A Good Used Book, ourselves, and Bothayna Al-Essa’s third novel to reach an English readership.
Rebellious, playful and prophetic, this classic satire stands as a reminder of what all is lost to censorship: access, of course, but imagination and desire and survival as well. THE BOOK CENSOR’S LIBRARY is a dystopian story with a literary heart. It’s the novel-in-translation that our new world needs.
