When Tolstoy's The Kreutzer Sonata was banned from distribution through the mail (except for first class) in 1890, New York street vendors began selling it from pushcarts carrying large signs reading "Suppressed!" In 1961, the United States Supreme Court pondered whether D.H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover was lewd or literary. In 1969, the novel was required reading in many college literature courses. Changing sexual mores have moved many formerly forbidden books out of locked cabinets and into libraries and classrooms. Literature Suppressed on Sexual Grounds, Fourth Edition examines the issues underlying the suppression of more than 120 works deemed sexually obscene. Entries include: * America: The Book (Jon Stewart) * An American Tragedy (Theodore Dreiser) * The Arabian Nights (Sir Richard Burton, trans.) * The Art of Love (Ovid) * The Bluest Eye (Toni Morrison) * Forever (Judy Blume) * Gossip Girl series (Cecily von Ziegesar) * How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents (Julia Alvarez) * Lady Chatterley's Lover (D.H. Lawrence) * Lolita (Vladimir Nabokov) * Looking for Alaska (John Green) * Rabbit, Run (John Updike) * Snow Falling on Cedars (David Guterson) * Song of Solomon (Toni Morrison) * This Boy's Life (Tobias Wolff) * Ulysses (James Joyce) * and more.
