I am sure that it is just an episode and that the particular author's political view touches a nerve that is very sensitive, for one reason or an other.
I have found my self as you (sometimes) and some other times I have kept reading on. Lately I have been quite disturbed by one opinion of my preferred author on police fiction, maybe the author that gives me more pleasure to read, now.
I kept reading her as she is so brilliant, and in her work her political opinions do not show. Also the point in question might not have touched me profoundly as other subjects might have done.
I have the impression that if one simply
can't forget it , there is an emotional, irrational component that is usually impossible to explain and that is better to accept plainly and, as you do, honestly.
