What we’re about
Greetings, book lovers!
Are you intrigued by diving into the forbidden realms of literature? Are you passionate about exploring the stories that have challenged societal norms and sparked controversy throughout history? If so, we invite you to join us in forming a new and exciting book club focused on America's banned books!
Our mission is simple: to celebrate the freedom to read and engage in meaningful discussions about the books that have been censored, challenged, and banned in the United States. From classics to contemporary works, we'll explore a diverse range of literature that has stirred debate and pushed boundaries.
To begin our journey, we'll start with "The Fire Next Time" by James Baldwin, a captivating and provocative exploration of race, religion, and identity. Whether you're a longtime fan of Baldwin's writing or discovering his work for the first time, this powerful book has something for everyone.
Come prepared to share your thoughts, insights, and questions as we embark on this literary adventure together. No prior experience with banned books is necessary—all you need is a curious mind and a love of reading!
If you want to join our book club or have any questions, please contact Melissa McPhun at 415.215.5828 or mcphun@gmail.com. Let's come together to celebrate the freedom of expression and explore the stories that shape our world.
We can't wait to connect with fellow book enthusiasts and embark on this journey into the world of America's banned books. See you there!
Happy reading! 📖✨
