Is this novel offensive to Moslems?
Just giving you a bump.
I read it in high school and don’t recall it being banned anywhere. However, I imagine much of it would be objectionable today. The first example I can think of is Ibrahim’s (sp?) sister being terrorized over a threatened clitoradectomy (probably didn’t spell that right either).
A quick skim over several webpages does not reveal any bannings. Only one reference to being sued by “a German doctor”.
