Giving Offense: Essays on Censorship 1st edition
J. M. Coetzee
This text presents an analysis of censorship from the perspective of a writer who has lived and worked under its shadow. Seeking to understand the passion that plays itself out in acts of silencing and censoring, Coetzee focuses on the ways authors have historically responded to censorship.
