Banned Books Week is a reminder that the freedom to read is something we protect, not something we assume. One of my favorites, The Grapes of Wrath, has been banned and challenged more than once, and it’s still one of the most powerful stories I’ve read.

A light blue poster features large blue text that reads, “A City That Reads Is a City That Leads.” Below it, smaller text says, “Banned Books Week, October 4–10, 2026.” In the lower left corner is the City of Seattle logo with the text “City of Seattle, Mayor Katie B. Wilson.” On the right side of the poster is a tilted book cover of “The Grapes of Wrath” by John Steinbeck, published by Penguin Classics. The cover shows an illustrated person standing on a landscape with earthy colors and a large yellow sun-like shape in the background.

#astarionbook update: I’m halfway through the book and I don’t see anything discourse-able so far. It’s funny, horny, and horrifying, exactly what I’d expected. Now, my line and copy editor might thwap me on the nose with the Chicago manual if I wrote in paragraphs like that, but it also works?
