Luther Blissett Moral Panic There’s an anti-Blissett crackdown going on in Italy. The reason is LB’s book ‘Lasciate che i bimbi. “Pedofilia”, un pretesto per la caccia alle streghe’ [Let The Children…: Pedophilia as A Pretext for Witch Hunt], which Castelvecchi Edizioni published in the Autumn of 1997.

Let the Children Play 2
