- B1FF_PSUVM 9y ago> “Gore did not like Truman very much.” There seems to be a substantial cohort of artists/authors with absent mothers. Those are two of them, and I can think of a few others, not that biographies interest me much in general.
- emmelaich 9y agoI don't think Gore Vidal liked anyone much, so no great loss there.
- erikpukinskis 9y agoI find it almost impossible to feel like I really understand any work without at least a little biographical information, even code. I want to have a flavor of who the person is who made this thing, how their motivations dovetail with its form.
