A Swedish edition of the Norwegian author's "Lasso rundt fru luna".Agnar Mykle [1915-1994] was a Norwegian writer who became a highly controversial figure when "Sangen om den rode rubin" [The Song of the Red Ruby] appeared in 1957 and a court case was brought against Mykle and his publisher for publishing immoral and obscene material. Though both men were acquitted and the Norwegian Supreme Court overturned the ruling that all copies of the book should be withdrawn, Mykle was so profoundly affected by the publicity surrounding the case that he became a recluse for the rest of his life. Dust jacket present.
