Yes. Rand puts ugly rapists on a pedestal. Danielle is a moron.

It is never a good idea to insult brilliant writers who are still living.

Another fine example of Margaret Atwood's exceptional writing talent, no matter the subject the matter. I look forward to more stories like this one.

That is quite the burn. I hope it finds its way to Danielle Smith.

Dani is already spinning it that the books were banned by the library themselves and not due to UCP policies. Seems unlikely, but it was the only spin she could come up with apparently.

She can spin it however she wants. The fact remains that the policy is poorly conceived and written. Ayn Rand's horrible tomes, for example, fall within the criteria defined by the policy. Here's a good summary of a book she thinks should be required reading. www.theguardian.com/books/booksb...

I have an original first edition hardcover edition from 1985, autographed in person. Changed my life. PS In my senior high school year we went through Atwood's Survival. Game changing! Margaret Atwood is a Canadian treasure!
