Unlock the secrets of Australia's literary history where you'll journey back to the 20th century and delve into the intriguing world of literary censorship.

Join the National Archives of Australia for a thought-provoking look at records in the national archival collection about books that were censored and deemed unsuitable for the general population at the time.
