Banned Books Displays I Have Loved - Part 2

One of the things Tsarist and Soviet Russia had in common was how many of their writers were famed for being banned or challenged - to have a celebrated Russian author that was banned, exiled, or imprisoned almost goes without saying.

I was a Russian minor and, as mentioned in yesterday's post, was pretty much left to my own devices for displays the year that we happened to be celebrating The Year of Russia with the Kennesaw State University Library System. Below are some of my banned author info cards and some of my "propaganda" cards that temporarily festooned the Year of Russia poster.
