Incest in Popular Fiction, Vol. 1

By: Rasmussen, Dana

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Incest is something that makes most people cringe. It is the ultimate taboo and one of the most disturbing acts in almost all parts of the world. Yet the subject comes up time after time, especially in literature.

This book contains an overview of incest, including information on incest between adults and children, siblings, consenting related adults, cousins, inbreeding, and more. It also covers the history, laws, and religious views on the subject.

It also lists novels in popular culture that deal with incest like "Flowers in the Attic," "Paradise Lost," "The Hotel New Hampshire," "The Manchurian Candidate," "The Monk" and more.

So take a look inside and read about one of the most disturbing acts of all time and some great books that just so happen to feature incest.
