Description

In 1918, Ezra Pound forwarded James Joyce’s Ulysses to Margaret Anderson. Fourteen of the anticipated eighteen parts were published until the issue of July/August 1920, when the Post Office refused to distribute copies on the grounds of obscenity at the instigation of the New York Society for the Suppression of vice. The trial that ensued resulted in a nominal fine but effectively banned the publication of Ulysses in America.
