In public libraries of Moscow would revise the list of purchased books and will remove some popular works. Their place should be taken by literature, "useful for young people," according to city officials. In the category of "questionable" hit the books about vampires, "low-grade romance novels", "50 shades of grey", the benefits of those "less wash the dishes, more sex and less fuss."

"It's not even a question of censorship, and understanding of the situation. We work to develop normal readers taste. "We won't go!", — talk me. Yes it is better to let you come to one person who read Dostoevsky than ten people choosing dubious literature, does not understand why", — reports TASS of a word of head of the Department of culture of Moscow Alexander Kibovsky.

Moscow believes that with library shelves should definitely remove books that contain profanity and calls for suicide, as well as addressing issues of addiction. the "From the adult literature should remove the "Naked lunch" by William Burroughs. The book tells a story about drug hallucinations, sexual adventures. From children's books is Stephen Caste "playing dead", which actively encourage young people to pretend to be dead and then you won't be ostracized. I think that this subject is not acceptable in our libraries," added Moscow the official Tatiana Krasnova.
