Sex & Sensibility

book cover

Reflections on Forbidden Mirrors and the Will
to Censor

by Marcia Pally

Hopewell: The Ecco Press 1994, 198 Pages, Paper, out of print

Sex & Sensibility examines the growing impulse to blame images for society's deeply rooted ills. In this evocative and extensively researched text, Marcia Pally adresses the issues theat lie at the heart of one of America's most troubeling social problems and most treasured rights and freedoms.

"Those who thought the censorship wars had been won with Ulysses, The Well of Loneliness, Tropic of Cancer, or Lolita will be amazed to discover that censorship rebounded strongly in the 80's and is now at levels that would gratify Anthony Comstock. In Sex & Sensibility, Marcia Pally documents this alarming trend and raises fascinating questions about the nature of censorship itself."

— Erica Jong
