Milton High Censors Solzhenitsyn Novel
Nobel laureate Alexander Solzhenitsyn's One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich is banned from a Milton New Hampshire high school freshman class and destroyed after complaints that it contains obscenities including the word bastard. School officials cite language unsuitable for home use and consider a new district policy on assigned readings. Teacher Robert Riff lamented the removal but noted the book had long sat on shelves.
