New enough and long enough, neutral, and well-cited. Earwig finds nothing. Hook is cited from online source given. QPQ done. I have taken the liberty of changing "banned from" to "banned by": the word "banning" is used in the source, but its meaning is far from clear. The source says someone demanded the book be withdrawn from bookshops and then goes on to imply that that happened by saying "the press was left with 5950 copies". With that slight tweak, ready to go... but when this comes to be promoted someone may feel that "withdrawn" would be better than "banned". Moonraker (talk) 22:20, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
