IIRC, we discussed Hemingway's "Hills Like White Elephants" (abortion) and Flaubert's "Madame Bovary" (adultery) in great detail in 11th grade English III at Our Lady of Perpetual Motion Dicosean High School. Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" (greed, adultery, lust, murder, drunkeness, overt symbolism) was also on the syllabus.
