Series produced by WFHB

Radio reader series from Community Radio WFHB in Bloomington, Indiana.

Books burn; ideas endure. Books Unbound is a weekly showcase of literary works banned by those who fear the power of the pen. The program promotes literary reading and curiosity, challenging listeners to consider viewpoints that may be different from our own. Each week we bring you literature prohibited by governments, schools, and religious institutions. In the words of French philosopher Emile-Auguste Chartier, "nothing is as dangerous as an idea, when it’s the only one you’ve got."
