The major issue for me is that several of MZB's books have scenes of sexual exploitation of children in them. When I originally read them, I felt that from what I knew of history, the eras in which the books were set did have sexual exploitation of children so simply true to the historical settings. Looking at some of those scenes in light of have lived a few more decades and having read about her beliefs, I find it much harder to accept them as now I tend to find myself reading them as thinly disguised moralization of pedophilia.
