The LA Times Jacket Copy Blog did a neat little story about Al Taliya Books in Amman, Jordan; known as THE place to go when you are in the market for a banned book in the Middle East.
But his shop is known as the place in Amman to get forbidden fruits of knowledge. Even the government official in charge of restricting them recently announced in a newspaper article that "stopping books from reaching the people is a page we've turned."
Most requested book? Salman Rushdie's "The Satanic Verses."
