You're using the wrong module, then. To use the ‘csv’ module is to have
the sequence of characters parsed to extract component values, which
cannot also “leave each and every character alone”.

If you want to “leave each and every character alone”, don't parse the
data as CSV. Instead, read the file as a simple text file.
