Books

I really don't want to click on the article, due to the clickbait title not saying who the author is.

It's about Saul Bellow (thanks /u/protist), who was one of my favorite authors when I was in college. They say to never meet your heroes, so I think I might choose to not read about how awful he likely was as a religious conservative male in the Midwest in the 50s.

EDIT: I decided to read it. Yep, as I suspected he was a violent misogynist. While I loved Henderson the Rain King and Adventures of Auggie Marsh (both excellent reads), looking back 20 years after reading most of his books I can see how misogynist his writing was. I noticed it less when I was a 22 year old college kid. I still recommend those two books, but Herzog was blatantly woman-hating.
