OTOH, do you feel comfortable posting the image of a page and reading books by an author accused by her children and others of child sexual abuse and rape? Who knew of and did not report her husband's sexual abuse of children?

You know, I did think about that before I posted the page. I had a feeling that someone would bring it up.
My response is that I read stories that I like. If I had known about MZB's history before I bought the book, I may not have bought it, but since I bought it and read it almost 40 years ago (long before the allegations were made), the answer is yes...I absolutely feel comfortable. I refuse to feel guilt about enjoying a story...multiple stories, in fact.
I also read and enjoy most of the books and stories by Orson Scott Card, by the way...even though I utterly detest pretty much all of political and social positions. I enjoy books and stories by Harlan Ellison as well, even though, by all accounts, he was one of the biggest jerks ever...freely insulting and degrading anyone and everyone.
