What are banned books?
Simply put, books get banned in schools, libraries, and other institutions in the U.S. when complaints that content is offensive result in their removal from shelves. That’s censorship. Unfortunately, it happens often.
What's in the box?
- One or two banned books (you choose!) written for adult (or often young adult) readers published during the past decade. Many of the books we send are literary award winners, but some aren't. Regardless, they're all books of considerable merit, brand new, and worthy of your distinguished bookshelf. We aren't committed to any certain genre — past boxes have contained graphic novels and memoirs as well as historical fiction, urban fantasy, and contemporary novels, to name a few.
- A lapel pin allied with one of the books in your shipment.
- A bookmark or two with the lowdown on how and why the books in your box were censored.
- At least one additional bookish item we hope you'll either adore for its whimsicality or find particularly useful.
