Dua Lipa opened a 'banned books' library. The thread argued nothing on the shelves is banned (euronews.com)
Dua Lipa's Service95 book club installed the collection inside Porto's Livraria Lello, a ticketed tourist landmark where one visitor says staff refused to sell him a Naomi Klein paperback. Half the thread snagged on one word: with the titles a click away online and 'Livraria' meaning bookstore, not library, is anything here truly banned?
The blunter read: 'banned books' has decayed into a marketing label. The counter: the shelf gathers titles censored somewhere in the world, and Atwood really was banned in Portugal, under Salazar.
