I knew about the allegations against MZB, luckily I never got into her books, so it's not a big loss for me - but just now I got curious and did some reading - Is this article legitimately by MZB's daughter? https://thembeforeus.com/moira-greyland-i-was-born-into-a-family-of-famous-gay-pagan-authors-in-the-late-sixties/
That's a sad outcome - of course it is understandable that as a traumatized victim she has a risk to have a warped vision of reality - but holy cow, to blame homosexuality as the root of the problem, that's losing the plot entirely.
Yikes! That's even worse than what I knew about the whole ordeal. What a sad outcome indeed... :(
