De Grazia, the attorney who argued and won the Tropic of Cancer case before the Supreme Court, offers a narrative history of censorship—from the jailing of Emile Zola’s English publisher through the suppression of Joyce’s Ulysses , down to recent attempts to obstruct works by Miller, Burroughs, Nabokov, and Mapplethorpe.
