Sally Rooney Books Pulled in U.K. Over Support for Palestine Action
Renowned Irish novelist Sally Rooney has seen her bestselling books pulled from shelves across the United Kingdom. This drastic step follows the author's open financial backing of Palestine Action, a direct-action network that British authorities classified as a terrorist organization. Rooney's publishing house, Faber, explained that ongoing legal prohibitions prevent them from transferring U.K. earnings to the writer. Both the author and her publisher agreed to halt distribution entirely within the region, with Rooney declaring that she accepts the full legal and professional repercussions of her political stance.
