    Banned Books Week is an annual celebration of the freedom to read that reminds Americans not to take that precious freedom for granted. To recognize this event, the Rosenbach is hosting Authors of Mischief, featuring readings of banned and censored books in the Rosenbach collections. The program will include passages from Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, In the Night Kitchen by Maurice Sendak, and many more.
