Sylvia Beach & Harriet Weaver holding hands at the Paris in the Twenties Exhibition, London June 1960, both incredibly generous in their support of James Joyce and his landmark novel Ulysses. #SylviaBeach #HarrietWeaver #Ulysses #JamesJoyce #censorship

No magazine was as important to James Joyce as The Little Review. Editors Margaret Anderson & Jane Heap were 2 women in love with each other and w/art & experiment. After publishing chapters of Ulysses in their magazine for 2 yrs, they were charged with obscenity by the US govt.

Four of the women who worked to see Ulysses into print —Margaret Anderson, Jane Heap, Sylvia Beach and Adrienne Monnier—were openly gay. These lesbian feminists were committed to free speech and causes such as anarchism, female suffrage, & non-participation in World War I. #LGBTQ

The editors of The Little Review Jane Heap & Margaret Anderson were charged w/obscenity by a NY court for publishing chapters of Ulysses. Judges ruled the book obscene & fined the editors $50 dollars each. Due to this 1921 decision, Ulysses was illegal in the U.S. for 10 yrs.

BREAKING: Allan Lichtman, who has correctly predicted every election, gives the strongest reasons why Democrats must stand with Biden. Lichtman also demolished Donald Trump for lying on every question in the debate. Retweet to make sure all Americans see

When Margaret Anderson read the beginning of Ulysses she vowed to print it in The Little Review - “if it’s the last effort of our lives.” The first of 23 installments of Ulysses appeared in the Little Review in March 1918. #TheLittleReview #Ulysses #MargaretAnderson #censorship

In 1917, Sylvia Beach met French bookseller Adrienne Monnier. Monnier encouraged Beach to open a bookstore specializing in English language books & in 1919, Shakespeare and Company opened near the Sorbonne. The bookshops served as a gathering place where readers & writers met.

Adrienne Monnier and Sylvia Beach in the kitchen. Not only was Monnier a passionate intellectual, brilliant essayist, and publisher, she was also a gourmet cook who earned a reputation for her roast chicken. #AdrienneMonnier #SylviaBeach #leftbank #ShakespeareandCompany
