The value of reading Literature - how it can spark social change and imagination

Interesting take. But it can also be challenged that such books as animal farm and Brave New World were banned because it challenged the morality of certain institutional and political figures actions. Moreover you will notice I am sure that Thoreau's Walden was not banned from France or Britain during the eighteenth century and it is pretty much a work that advocates the individual to stand up for their rights and seeks to undermine totalitarianism.
