JKR is a perfect example that some authors are fucking shitty people and its ok to separate their work from them. Phillip K Dick is another good example. I fucking love his art but as a person he was a horrible person to the women in his life, especially Anne. Then almost killing his girlfriend. Dude had personal demons for sure.
And Hemingway… we could go one for hours here but The Old Man and the Sea is a fucking masterpiece and has made this grown man cry multiple times. IDGAF Hemingway was great and his favorite cocktails are great for when you really wanna get fucked up quick
Kipling wrote some awesome stuff, but man, was he ever a product of his own racist and mysogenist times. He literally invented the term “White man’s burden”.
