Dirty Mouth?

Books containing obscene language are no different than books without obscene language. There is a line that should not be crossed, however. If language or obscenity reaches a point where it serves no purpose except to offend people, the author has crossed the line. Obscene language can be used as a tool by Authors to make a statement, create emphasis, or provoke a reaction from the reader. Obscene language is one of many tools to accomplish these tasks that all authors are faced with.
