At the risk of becoming bold about my opinions, "too far" should not concentrate solely on "s-x", its actions, its place in society, and how we are/are not offended. I am bothered, annoyed and upset by
"history" presented with factual inaccuracies and bias. Bias is a result of authors picking and choosing what they will present. P.C. is more than dangerous and there is a great deal of that running amok.
Novels is faux poetry--enough--and too many and too far.
Books written by famous wives of vice presidents are way over the top.
(What DOES Big Grandma have in mind?)
But I shall not continue since I must jam some books into a suitcase for a trip to my native land, Chicago.
