HA.

Both Notre-Dame de Paris and Les Miserables were on Rome's Index Librorum Prohibitorum up until 1959.

There is also much Voltaire, but this is less surprising.

In fact, nearly every book ever written has been on the Index (or rather, on one of the forty-two [yes, forty-two] Indexes). I'm quite amused; I'd been under the impression that being banned by Rome was some sort of big deal.
