Meanwhile, my younger students complained that their parents made off with their Peyton Place copies — not to censor, but to read the forbidden book at last. ("Don’t tell your grandmother.")
In honor of Banned Books Week, nHumanities is pleased to direct you to Emily Toth's wonderful essay on teaching Peyton Place to today's students, 50 years after it was first published: How to Teach a Dirty Book (via Inside Higher Ed).
