New genre? The “Ban Me” book titles …

The Sydney Morning Herald’s Top 10 (book sales) for independent bookshops lists The dangerous books for boys (HarperCollins) at No #2 this week.

Could authors now be deliberately seeking out notioriety in order to increase revenue?  Will it be long before we see other titles like maybe: Racial slurs for all public speaking engagementsS*xist remarks to make at formal dinners, or indeed  Offensive behaviour for every occassion.

Maybe these books already exist; as many liberry users seem to think that liberrians keep them locked away somewhere, with all the other good stuff ….
