The Reception of "Howl"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"There is a greater peril to books today than at any other time since the invention of the printing press. The peril does not flow from sex censorship, but from the rise of authoritarian power and the attendant regimentation of thought and opinion. If the world turns totalitarian, there may be a holocaust in books beside which Savonarola's Florentine bonfires will pale into utter insignificance. Hitler's Germany lighted the fires of its destruction when it fanned the flames of burning books." (J.W. Erhlich, "Howl" Obscenity Trial Defense Council, June 1960)
