I am not a fan of burning books, and I have some experience in this. We cannot burn books, no matter how much you dislike the book. I would not, for instance, burn the books of Dan Brown … None of us can claim ignorance on what book-burning means. The burning of books is unmistakable code for tyranny, bigotry, hatred and fascism.
