> If an author's personal political and morality views change your enjoyment of books you'd only be able to read things from the last decade. Not necessarily enjoyment, but they definitely change my perspective on the books. I read them, I sometimes love them, but I read them differently knowing what I do about the author. I don't need or want to agree with every view an author has. But I do want to read their writing in context, including historical context. You should still read Ender's Game, and you can definitely still like it (I know I do!). > homosexuality didn't even really come up in Ender's Game Yeah, that's fair. Lots of adjacent things did though: masculinity, sexuality, and violence in that context (for example, in the shower fight scene). I think his views on homosexuality are reflected in how he addresses those topics, even though it's not the main idea of the book. So yes: tinged. Not ruined, or unreadable, or canceled. But definitely there.
