Fallen Angels, third of the 1988 trio, could stand as the representative American book about the Vietnam war (largely shorn, as is Myers's wont, of censorable language). These nature-oriented postcards stood between pornography, science, and tourism and were less censorable because the ideas implicit in them had been completely normalized in late nineteenth-and early twentieth-century Britain. For that matter, since violence or sex are by no means the only types of content that might corrupt character, there's no particular reason why censorable categories should remain limited to those two. |
