Books have always pushed boundaries, and Banned Books Week is all about honoring stories that spark conversation. Here’s a quick piece of trivia about a book that made waves:

Did you know? The American edition of Anthony Burgess’s A Clockwork Orange was missing its final chapter for over twenty years! The original British manuscript had 21 chapters—symbolizing the age of legal adulthood and maturity. However, his American publisher insisted on cutting Chapter 21, believing American readers wouldn't want a hopeful ending where Alex outgrows his violent youth. As a result, Stanley Kubrick’s iconic film adaptation was based on the truncated 20-chapter version.

Happy Banned Books Week from the shop! Did you know some of the most influential books in history were once pulled from shelves? Here’s a little trivia behind one of our favorites:

Did you know? Marjane Satrapi originally created Persepolis with no intention of writing an autobiographical comic. She began drawing her experiences living through the 1979 Iranian Revolution simply because her European friends kept asking her what everyday life was like in Iran, and she got tired of answering the exact same questions at dinner parties!

It’s Banned Books Week! We’re celebrating the freedom to read all week long by sharing some fascinating backstory behind titles that have faced challenges over the years.

Did you know? John Steinbeck’s dog literally ate his homework! In May 1936, Steinbeck’s Irish setter, Toby, got into his writing den and chewed the original, handwritten first draft of Of Mice and Men into confetti. Steinbeck wrote to his agent that while he was devastated, he couldn't stay mad because the dog "may have been acting as a literary critic." He had to rewrite the entire first half from memory.

In honor of Banned Books Week, we’re spotlighting the wild history and surprising backstories of challenged classics.

Did you know? Watchmen is the only graphic novel to ever win a prestigious Hugo Award. In 1988, the World Science Fiction Convention created an entirely new one-time category, "Other Forms," specifically so Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ groundbreaking twelve-issue deconstruction of the superhero genre could be honored alongside traditional science fiction novels.
