Russia is once again repeating dystopian plots—Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451." While books aren't being burned yet, they are being removed from sale, confiscated from libraries, and entire passages are being blacked out. The reason for this could be an LGBT character, a reference to drugs, the name of a "foreign agent," the stamp of an undesirable foundation on the endpaper, or even "questionable pedagogical principles" in children's books. Grigory Oster's "Harmful Advice" recently attracted the government's attention. In April, the head of the Investigative Committee, Alexander Bastrykin, ordered an investigation of the author's books, finding them to contain "questionable teachings from a pedagogical standpoint." Following this news, demand for Oster's books skyrocketed. Chitai-Gorod reported that sales increased 7.6-fold in a week, sixfold in offline sales, and nearly 40-fold in online sales. Search queries for Oster have increased tenfold. In this video, we explore how the new book censorship works: why law enforcement agencies are visiting publishers, why bookstores are being fined, and how self-censorship is causing books to disappear from shelves without an outright ban. We'll also tell you where to find uncensored books now.
