Trialogue in the Cloud Series 9: A Selection of Banned Books
Banned and challenged books have significantly impacted our society and literary legacy. The practice of banning certain titles has a long history, with various institutions imposing restrictions at different times. In the Trilogy in the Cloud series, three scholars delve into selected titles listed as banned and challenged books by the ALA and other sources.
Beginning in December, this Zoom series features six American Nobel literature winning titles. Notably, some authors appear on both lists, sparking interesting discussions.
The Selected Books:
“The Handmaid's Tale” by Margaret Atwood
“The Kite Runner” by Khaled Hosseini
“The Catcher in the Rye” by J.D. Salinger
“To Kill a Mockingbird” by Harper Lee
“The Color Purple” by Alice Walker
“A Clockwork Orange” by Anthony Burgess
