As he's dead and his works are PD, I have no risk of sending money to a man I know I don't like.
Totally agree, and I'm not boycotting or anything, it's just when reading, the actual racist remarks jar with me and pull me out of the reading. I know at that time the racism was endemic across the world and I can accept Lovecraft was a product of those times, but I'm still not a fan for the reasons I stated earlier.
