I don't think I can, not really — it's like throwing away the whole corpus of Kipling's works for his imperialist verses, cancelling J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter because of her feminist tweets, or calling to boycott Noam Chomsky's linguistic works because of his political statements — but I can pretend that I do :-) However, I don't think the commenters in this thread are all Ukrainians.
- jevgeni 4y agoI mean when the Russian president makes a televised speech before the invasion saying that he is going to “find the solution to the Ukrainian question” another author and another book seems a more appropriate comparison…
- azangru 4y agoMaybe, and if that other book was interesting, I wouldn't mind reading it; but from what I heard, it's neither entertaining nor deep. From what I understand, its author was a better painter than writer.
