Venice Mayor Bans Children’s Books With Same-Sex Families; Italian Authors Say ‘Then Ban Us, Too’

Luigi Brugnano said, “At home parents can be called Dad One and Dad Two, but I have to think about the majority of families where there is a mother and a father.” 263 writers responded, “Kindly ban our books as well. We don’t want to stay in a city where the books of others are banned.”
