If these books conflict with their values, they must have some pretty nasty values.

I have read only two of the books: Please ponit me to the child porn scene in

Jonathan Froer: Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close

I can't remember any scene I would put under pornographic and I would be appalled if there was child pornography. (Since I read in German it is possible, though highly improbably that the scene was cut in the translation)

Uh... nowadays, yes.
But if it's a book describing the sexual abuse of boys in the 19th century, then it's perfectly within most people's values.

The same if it's a novel from the 18th century, set in Roman times.

Indeed, you'd have to define pornography to get to the root of your statement. There are many books which, reasonably explicitly, detail the sexual abuse of one of the child characters. Is that child pornography? Anne Rice has a novel about singers, set hundreds of years ago. Are you going to ban that???

Lol the books were flagged up by a group calling themselves
“ County Citizens Defending Freedom.”
They must have found that some of the books contained irony.

It's also against the law, genius/

It appears that a singular woman lodged a complaint. That starts a review of the text for the stated
reason as per the complaintant. It does not automatically ban the book.
