Combining the propulsive energy of manga with the sobering weight of history, Sook’s graphic memoir brings to life the turbulent journey of a group of readers in 1980s South Korea who risk everything for the right to read. One school district in Florida was so impressed with Banned Book Club that they pulled it from the shelves in 2023. Read it while you can.
“The messages of hope are universal.” — Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
“It’s hard to imagine a world where Banned Book Club could be more relevant than it is right now.” — A.V. Club
Heads up: Banned Book Club is set during the fascist era of South Korea’s Fifth Republic, rife with political corruption and the loss of human rights.
Performing: Kate Berreth, Christiana Crabbe & Esa Hakkarainen , Ben Dyleuth, Brielle Familiar , LEMON BOY, Drea Marilyn, Ben Mish, Townsend’s Solitaire, and Bjørn Watkins
