The Good Ship Venus - John De St. Jorre
The Erotic Voyage of the Olympia Press
KORTE INHOUD
A tale intriguing for its novelty, its insight into modern literary history, & the thread of social history that runs thruout, Venus Bound is the true story of Olympia Press. The company spent decades pushing the censorship envelope by publishing ground-breaking literature from authors such as Henry Miller, William Burroughs & Vladimir Nabokov. To subsidize this high-minded adventure, Olympia pumped out a line of plain old dirty books. John de St. Jorre follows the venture from its inception just after WWI until its demise during the liberated '60s & '70s.
