About this event:
location:
Thursday, October 4, 6:45 – 8:00 p.m.
Shimer College, Cinderella Lounge
3424 S. State St.
Shimer College invites Chicago to participate in
an evening of short readings from the (sadly) long list of books that have been
banned, burned and otherwise barred from the public. Reflecting on the history
of book burnings as depicted in The Book Thief, this event
coincides with the 30th anniversary of Banned Books Week. Come read
from your own favorite once- or currently-threatened book or from one selected
by the students, staff and faculty of Shimer. For more information call (312)
235-3529 or email s.patterson@shimer.edu.
