  1. I would pick Sherman Alexie's The Absolute True Story of a Part-Time Indian. Quite a stir was caused in the school I used to teach at when a teacher read passages aloud in class...

  2. I've never read The Absolute True Story of a Part-Time Indian. As a librarian, I often was embroiled in censorship issues. Sometimes the books were worth fighting for; sometimes it was censorship we fought against (Madonna's book, for example).
