Simon, great to see you. There is no mystery. Every time I talk, I speak to the author of a banned book at a minimum once a week, and there's never any mystery as to why the book was banned.
The book is The Showman, Inside the Invasion that Shook the World and Made the Leader of Volodymyr Zelensky.
