the demand remains and many out-of-print books have become collectors’ items and very valuable.
What are the most sought-after out-of-print books? Bookfinder.com has released its latest list. Pop singer Madonna’s revered coffee table book Sex, published by Warner Books in 1992, tops the list as it has done since 2011.


The book, which was packaged in aluminium and is spiral bound and enclosed in a Mylar sheet, was an instant commercial success, selling over 150,000 copies on its first day of release and topping the New York Times’ Best Seller list.

It was released — in five continents and in five languages — the day after Madonna’s Erotica album in a blaze of controversy with the Vatican calling for Catholics to boycott it and Japan banned it from sale shortly after its release. 

“I don’t think s-x is bad. I don’t think nudity is bad. I don’t think that being in touch with your s-xuality and being able to talk about it is bad. I think the problem is that everyone is so uptight about it and have turned it into a bad thing when it’s not. If people could speak freely, we would have more people practising safe s-x, we wouldn’t have people being s-xually abused,” said Madonna, who is playing concerts in Australia in March, said in response to the outcry towards her book.
