LOLITA censorship (fwd)
Date
Body
EDITOR's NOTE. The English-language LOLITA was banned in France (where it
was first published) and in England. There are many articles devoted to
the topic. Can someone supply a bibliographic citation?

I've read a lot about the controversy surrounding "Lolita" when it was first
published, the town that almost changed its name, the difficulty in finding
a publisher, etc., but was it ever banned anywhere (esp. within the United
States)?
