I am trying to gather reviews/criticisms on The Plot Against America by Philip Roth from organizations like the National Council for English Teachers- that speak to the merit of the book for high school students. I have gathered all the reviews/awards/criticisms listed on Gale's Literature Resource Center and EBSCO's NoveLIst which include the ALA's 2005 Notable Book List for Adults and School Library Journal List for High School Students and all the reviews from places like The New York Times, Publishers Weekly, Booklist etc. I am asking if anyone knows of a school related organization including the NCET that reviewed this book or if there are any places to find additional criticisms. The reason for asking is that a classroom teacher had an objection by non building level administration to the class reading the book on the grounds of sexual content. You can reply to the e-mail address below. Thanks in advance for any help.
