Omaha Custom List: Censorship, Fascism, and McCarthyism 10/2025

This list was created by librarians at Omaha Public Library for an adult patron looking for great books that featured censorship, fascism, McCarthyism, and how people fought back. They previously enjoyed titles like "Parable of the Sower" by Octavia E. Butler and "Power Hungry" by Suzanne Cope. You can request your own list at omahalibrary.org/find-your-next-read!
