DIGITAL UNDERGROUND
BY MITCH ROSE

BOOK-CENSORSHIP BONANZA
Name the novels whose descriptions have been censored.

1. A diabolical study of how a man becomes a fanatic, but also a hymn to CENSORED. Bent as the crew is on CENSORED’s crusade, it is equally the image of a cooperative community at work.

2. A CENSORED is taken over by its mistreated CENSORED. Thus the stage is set for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned—a razor-edged tale that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible.

3. CENSORED’s daringly original literary vision and her groundbreaking philosophy, CENSORED, won immediate worldwide interest and acclaim. This instant classic is the story of an intransigent young CENSORED, his violent battle against conventional standards, and his explosive love affair with a beautiful woman who struggles to defeat him.

4. A young Jewish artist trained in the art of escape, CENSORED has just smuggled himself out of Nazi-invaded Prague. His Brooklyn cousin CENSORED is looking for a partner to create heroes for the latest novelty to hit America—the CENSORED.

COMMON FACTORS
What word or phrase describes both of the following?

2. “At the time of the lunar body smacking your ocular orb in the manner of a significantly sized dish of sauce, cheese, bread and spices—such is affection in Rome.” (1952)

3. “Greetings, gentleman who smacks stretched skins over bangled frames. Perform a musical composition on my behalf.” (1965)
