Re: I can actually sell you on a few of these, OP.
(Anonymous) 2014-03-19 12:24 am (UTC)(link)To answer your questions about banning, this list isn't books that have been subject to some sort of wide-reaching ban. The list is the books on the "Radcliffe Publishing Course Top 100 Novels of the 20th Century" that have been subject to attempts to remove them from school courses or school libraries.
For specific books (from http://www.ala.org/bbooks/frequentlychallengedbooks/classics/reasons, because now I'm curious):
1984: because Orwell's novel is "pro-communist and contained explicit sexual matter."
Invisible Man: Two parents raised concerns about profanity and images of violence and sexuality in the book and requested that it be removed from the reading list.
Call of the Wild: •Banned in Italy (1929), Yugoslavia (1929), and burned in Nazi bonfires (1933). (no clue why, there.)
LOTR: •Burned in Alamagordo, NM (2001) outside Christ Community Church along with other Tolkien novels as satanic (which is all sorts of hilarious.)
Cat's Cradle: Only has challenges listed, no reasoning for them.

If not, I repeat:
