See photos. 319 pages. 6" x 8 3/4". Lolita was first published by the Olympia Press in France in 1955, because of fear of censorship in the USA. Putnam finally published the book in August, 1958, and it had three printings within days, with 100,000 sales in three weeks. Lolita was banned as obscene in France from 1956-1959, in England from 1955-59, Argentina in 1959, and New Zealand in 1960, as well as other countries, including Canada and South Africa. The notoriety led to its immediate success in the USA. It has been banned by many schools and libraries in America. N° de ref. del artículo 000800
