This book reveals the impact of copyright law on transatlantic modernism in the United States. Key aspects of modernism-James Joyce's reputation in America, Ezra Pound's proposals for copyright reform, Samuel Roth's activities as a pirate-pornographer-are reexamined in the light of the U.S. law and the voracious public domain it created.
