The 2026 edition of this annual favorite features David Levine classics drawn exclusively for The New York Review of Books. In celebration of free speech, this year’s calendar highlights thirteen authors of banned books and their censored works, including F. Scott Fitzgerald and The Great Gatsby, Toni Morrison and The Bluest Eye and Beloved, Isabel Allende and The House of the Spirits, Aldous Huxley and Brave New World, Alice Walker and The Color Purple, and more. 

We’ve returned to our previous 12.5" x 9.5" wall format with large date blocks. This handsome layout makes the calendar ideal for recording notes and appointments.

Shipping is FREE within the contiguous US! At just $16.95 each, why not order one calendar for yourself and several for your friends? 

For over forty years, David Levine’s brilliant drawings illustrated and illuminated New York Review articles. John Updike, who was one of the artist’s frequent subjects, paid tribute to Levine: “In a confusing time, he bears witness. In a shoddy time, he does good work. Here he is.”
