A Texas school has removed books “replete with graphic, gratuitous, sexually-explicit content,” including depictions of incest, rape, and homosexuality, that are on a list of challenged books which also includes an illustrated adaptation of Anne Frank’s diary and the Bible.

The issue came to light on Wednesday when a staff member from Keller Independent School District (ISD) sent an email requesting that all of the books that were challenged over the last year be removed.
