More than 300 literary figures have signed an open letter denouncing the publisher Penguin Random House for its decision to publish a new book by Justice Amy Coney Barrett in the aftermath of her vote to overturn Roe v Wade and end the right to aboriton access in the US.
“This is not just a book that we disagree with, and we are not calling for censorship. Many of us work daily with books we find disagreeable to our personal politics,” the letter reads, in part. “Rather, this is a case where a corporation has privately funded the destruction of human rights with obscene profits.”
