Do you want what you read to be decided based on what might be prohibited in some other country? Saudi Arabia perhaps?
Illegal subjects? Most fiction contains illegal subjects. Heck, ever see a slasher movie? Ever read their literary equivalents? Why is it the fundamentalist bluenose types never seem to object much to horrific violence being lovingly created on film or in writing, but when it comes to sex they go ballistic?
And where is 'pseudo incest' between adults illegal anyway?
