I don't think so.
There is of course "Lolita" as mentioned elsewhere in the fiction category. Books on how to build bombs, steal cars, rob banks, etc. etc. etc.
Should all this authors be arrested?
What of the books that explain how to build an Atomic Bomb?

Sorry, but in Roman law countries "an instigation to a crime IS a crime" - as I called it. I didn't know that in Anglosaxon countries it was an expression of freedom - but I do think this is your own personal interpretation of freedom of speech.
Nabokov's
Lolita has
absolutely nothing to do with what we're talking about.
