Shades of Grey: Do authors have a moral responsibility to their readers?
Posted by: cyber_onionsIn the book ’50 Shades of Grey’ author E.L. James depicts an abusive relationship, trying to pass it off as BDSM. Is this morally dubious, given that people might read the book and think that it accurately depicts BDSM? Or does it not matter, because it’s a work of fiction? Do authors have a moral responsibility to their readers?
