When I picked up Toni Morrison's Beloved from the library the librarian told me it was on the banned list. The library had just received the info to publicize Banned Book week. Curious as to why, we looked it up on line. One school parent group complained that it had incest and the infanticide. I just finished validating it and I didn't find any incest. The infanticide was on the past of a momentarily deranged mother to save her child from the horrors of slavery. I wonder if the people who objected to the book even read it. It's very moving and upsetting, working into the story, as it does, the horrors committed under slavery.
