Have sales really BEEN lost? I read a lot of those books in school, so perhaps 'ban' is not the proper word?
Of course if someone wanted to retroactively ban "Pride and Prejudice" so I didn't have to read it in 7th grade I would be a happy man. I don't think I've ever fully recovered from the sheer boredom those 500+ pages of bad soap opera inflicted on my brain.
