Although considered masterpieces, many literary classics have been challenged, banned, and censored worldwide. Some works were banned for political reasons, while others faced the same fate for religious or moral reasons. Unfortunately, the motives for targeting these classic books throughout history have not changed much over time and remain common arguments to justify book banning nowadays. We want to celebrate the freedom to read by gathering well-known books that have struggled to tell their stories. As Oscar Wilde wrote in the preface to the 1891 edition of The Picture of Dorian Gray, "There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written. That is all."

On this day in 1957, Jack Kerouac published his masterpiece, 'On the Road'. Perhaps the most famous and influential of the Beat novels, it represents much of what made the Beat and Counterculture movements so unique and important.

Kerouac often claimed that he wrote 'On the Road' on a single 120-foot scroll of paper in a mere three weeks. The book was first published by Viking in 1957.

To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the first printing, Viking Press published an edited version of the book in 2007. They substituted the fictional names for the real Beat protagonists and even included some of the more sexually explicit passages that were edited out of the 1957 edition.
