*June – [[Virago Press]] of London publishes ''Down the Road, Worlds Away'', a collection of short stories ostensibly by Rahila Khan, a young Muslim woman living in England.

"He, unlike the editors at Virago, had grown up in precisely the kind of area and social conditions that the book described... Although the book never claimed to be other than a work of fiction, the publishers destroyed the stock still in the warehouse, and recalled all unsold copies from the bookshops, thus turning it into an expensive bibliographical rarity."<ref>{{cite book |first=Theodore |last=Dalrymple |authorlink=Theodore Dalrymple |title=Spoilt Rotten |location=London |publisher=Gibson Square |year=2010 |page=244}}</ref>
