I've faced this problem before and the only solution I found to work besides encoding the data was to prepare the statement and specifically bind the data as a blob. So now your code would look like this:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;
use Storable qw(freeze thaw);
use DBI "SQL_BLOB";

my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:SQLite:dbname=testlib.db","","",{RaiseErro
+r => 1});

my @books=(
            {
                'ISBN' => '0596004788',
                'Title' => 'Learning Perl Objects, References, and Mod
+ules'
            },
            {
                'ISBN' => '0596001320',
                'Title' => 'Learning Perl, Third Edition'
            },
            {
                'ISBN' => '0596003137',
                'Title' => 'Perl Cookbook, Second Edition'
            },
        );

my $book_list = freeze(\@books);

my $sth = $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO BOOKS (BOOK) values (?)");
$sth->bind_param(1,$book_list,SQL_BLOB);
$sth->execute;
$sth->finish;

$sth = $dbh->prepare( 'select * from BOOKS' );
$sth->execute();
my $book= $sth->fetchrow_array ;

my $new_list = thaw($book);

foreach(@{$new_list}) {
    print "$_->{'ISBN'} $_->{'Title'}\n";
}
__END__
