I have that book! First edition, straight outta '79.
Scene: High school english with Mr. McKennon. I'm supposed to be listening to him drone on about Julius Ceasar, instead I'm reading "The Masters on the Nymph." He spots me quickly zooms in on the word "Nymph" in the title. He yanks the book out of my hands and begins to beller about reading pornography in class and sends me to the principal's office. I get there and wait. Principal come in and sees me for the first time (he's been my neighbor for 16years) in his office and asks why. I tell him for reading the book and he turns and pulls it off the shelf - "You mean this one?" I still got detention, but he was smiling.
