Intermeddlers: The Censorship of Lillian Hellmans The Childrens Hour
Adaptat de Sarah Stites Editat de Frank Hentschkeren Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 aug 2016
Lillian Hellman's The Children’s Hour opened on Broadway in 1934. A popular and critical success, this drama about two schoolteachers falsely accused of having a lesbian affair ran for 691 performances—-but the subject matter caused authorities to ban the play in many locations. The 1936 censorship trial in Boston became the first gay rights case taken on by the ACLU.
