And other things. He apparently didn't like John Coltrane. Or cricket, either.

In a world of people who get passes for being odious, hateful people on account of their artistic ability (on the Grammys or elsewhere), he's one that really sticks in my craw.

Did you just call me Coltrane? 02-15-2012 03:52 PM

I thought he just got a pass for being another upper-crusty English twit. He had artistic ability?

He was undoubtedly one of, if not the, greatest poets in the English language during the latter half of the 20th Century. He was also a racist prick. Some people can separate the two and enjoy the work on its own terms, but I can't read his poems (even the amazing ones, like the one Atticus posted) without hearing the other stuff in the background.

I'm pretty sure every book published in the last eighteen months was about Dahl and his issues.
