Lady Chatterley's Lover — D.H. Lawrence

D.H. Lawrence's explicit novel about the love affair between an aristocratic woman and her gamekeeper was banned in Britain from 1928 to 1960. Penguin Books's 1960 decision to publish the unexpurgated text led to the most celebrated obscenity trial in British legal history, in which the prosecution's question — "Is it a book you would wish your wife or servants to read?" — became an instant definition of establishment paternalism.
