With the advancement of globalization, the nature and realm of art, literature, and censorship have undergone multiple changes and often abrupt modifications. What is pure art, pure literature, and uncensored depiction of events and emotions raising several questions in terms of ethics, morality and ways of writing, portraying details etc. There is a rise in cultural control in almost all sectors of the world, not keeping art and literature far behind. The media plays a dominant role in disseminating the forms and struggles of art, lifestyle, literature, and culture in a certain way that is often seen as a hegemonic discourse in itself. To add to it, there is interference, monitoring, and surveillance from several segments that might affect the cause and sustenance of literary forms. There can be variants of censorship counterbalanced by nuanced patterns of resistance from writers all over the world. Nicole Moore’s edited volume Censorship and the Limits of the Literary: A Global View occupies a dialectical viewpoint that exists between literature and censorship. Freedom to read, specific agencies for control, value of life, ethical responsibility of a writer, and levels and integrity in censorship are some of the factors that have always been of immense importance in postmodern literary arguments.
