  it has to exist in the world before that reader can meet it.
  小说需要面世 读者才可能与之邂逅
• 
  
  And the very fact of censorship--
  审查制度的限制之故
• 
  
  So, the book was published by the olympia Press,
  小说只能由奥林匹亚出版社出版
• 
  
  and then it was banned in France and in Britain;
  很快法国和英国就将小说列为禁书
• 
  
  it was imported into the United States,
  而美国引进了这本小说
• 
  
  and several years later an American publication was made.
  多年以后小说的美国版面世
• 
  
  And it rocketed to the bestseller list.
  并一路飙升为畅销书
• 
  
  So, it was a very popular book in the U.S.,
  它虽曾是一部在美国广受欢迎的书
• 
  
  but it did have this history of being banned in Europe,
  却也曾在欧洲被列为禁书
• 
  
  and it was certainly controversial here.
  且在美国本土也饱受争议
• 
  
  Therefore, the mark of censorship is actually still on this book.
  因此 禁书的印记仍然烙在这本书上
