this book advertises properietary software in the backto childrenwhich i guess is consistent given the plot is 'just throw a bunch of definitely dangerous things together randomly and feed it to someone without their consent'

@jeffcliff Roald Dahl books are censored now? Let me guess, someone had a problem with people in the giving tree being black? sigh..book censorship is dumb.

@jeffcliff that's blasphemous.Next thing you know they'll be going after the great gatsby, and Earnest Hemingway.

at least the great gatsby is public domain (until they claw it back again)

@jeffcliff loved reading that one in school. a little drab at times but very interesting all in all.kind of reminds me of the original wuthering heights film. of course which was another book.

speaking of Hemingway, he may not be public domainbut i'm reading a book by the guy who was apparently one of his main inspirations and tbh it's pretty damn good https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Crane

@jeffcliff @modpod I've picked up Hemingway's early stuff published by Dover Thifts, which I think only publishes cheap public domain paperbacks.

@jeffcliff @GenerallyDisabled reminds me of a scene out of equilibrium where they've stolen away a book..

@jeffcliff awesome. i love stuff like that.i found a cool book not that long ago - a chemistry book from the 1830s i think it was, no newer than 1870 iirc. very neat volume.
