Literature is never understood through chance reading or mere glances through the lines. As for a writer, his/her responsibility is to present a conscious and meaningful expression of dialogues from life to enable more minds to participate in the communication of thoughts.
Sensationalism with crass thoughts to titillate the mind for instant gratification does not reflect the true purpose of writing.
When readers mature and show willingness to read more purposeful literature to analyse the different facets of life, the boundaries are breached to include comprehensive thoughts. Critical thinking is the key.

So very true! Literature is a door to so many landscapes. But we have to enter with our minds wide open.
