[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Horrible to read.... especially as someone who experienced something similar from my own mother.

But yes, I will still read her. I can still enjoy the art even if the artist is problematic/horrible in their personal life. [b]Plan to reread some of my favorite short stories of hers with this information in mind, it's pretty interesting perspective.[/b] [/quote]
This is a really gross way to say you are separating the art from the artist. Seems like you’re getting off on the abuse of a child. [/quote]

[b]I think you’re the one with the problem.[/b] Art can and should be separated from the artist. Thinking PP is getting off on it?  I think you’re the gross one. [/quote]
No. There is no way to interpret PP saying “[i]Plan to reread some of my favorite short stories of hers with this information in mind, it's pretty interesting perspective.[/i]” than that they are taking pleasure in someone else’s trauma.

There is no “interesting perspective” about knowing a child was repeatedly assaulted and “keeping that in mind” while re-reading Alice’s short stories.

And you that are defending that PP, look deep into yourself. There’s something very wrong with you to think what that person wrote is ok. [/quote]
