The anecdote tells about the censorship of a book. In some countries of the world, government forces impose selection criteria on artistic and cultural production.

This episode is the fictionalization of a situation of repression that has happened repeatedly in history. In the famous book by Ray Bradbury "Fahrenheit 451" the burning of books is one of the central themes of the plot.

The fragment describes the situation of censorship and burning of a book that belongs to the narrator. Instantly produces the reader's empathy with this character whose work has been destroyed.

Juliette [100K]
Sentence 3 supports the main idea of the passage the least because it doesn’t even mention anything about the women in their family, it definitely talks about women and their active ness in politics, but it doesn’t have anything to do with the women in their family whereas all the other sentences do.

Hope this helps!
