"Lady Chatterley's Lover" Is Among These Iconic Books That Have Been Banned

If you were already hooked on the TV series, you ought to give this banned book a read. Margaret Atwood's "The Handmaid's Tale" ($12, originally $16) follows narrator Kate, who exists only for sexual servitude and reproducing. Though one might think a dystopian world in which women are diminished to only being defined by their bodies and what they can do with them could be a positive read for schools to understand sexism, this book is often banned for explicitness about sex and being offensive to Christians. Nonetheless, it's a suspenseful read.
