Banned Books Week Special Event – Hosted by Blinkist
Books they don't want you to read—so you should
Banned Books Week: Rediscover Classics and Daring Contemporary Reads
Prepare to dive into the captivating worlds of banned and challenged books during our special Banned Books Week event on Blinkist! For ten thrilling days, from September 19th to September 30th, we're spotlighting 13 powerful titles that have been censored or restricted - but are now available for you to explore.
Revisit the timeless wisdom of literary masterpieces like George Orwell's 1984 and Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale. Discover bold, thought-provoking contemporary works that have stirred up controversy, such as Angie Thomas's The Hate U Give and Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye. Each of these books, though once deemed too dangerous or subversive, contain essential truths and perspectives that deserve to be heard.
Don't let censorship silence these vital voices. Immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of banned literature during our Banned Books Week celebration. Unlock new insights, challenge your assumptions, and revel in the power of the written word - no matter how unsettling it may be to the status quo. Dive in and get ready to be inspired, provoked, and transformed.
The special event starts September 19, 2024 — ends September 30, 2024.
