That's a good one! I hadn't heard of that (I had to look it up, but I'll remember to use it going forward).
I guess I'll have to come up with some other book that was written by someone who is universally disliked as an example. Unfortunately, since I am clueless about if the authors I read are male or female, black or white, let alone judged offensive by some - I can't come up with a different example at the moment. Heinlein maybe? Oh wait - that guy who wrote the Gor novels in the 60's. I think he was hated because of the way he portrayed women. OK, so I amend my previous comment to
"Should people be shamed for reading The Tarnsman of Gor?"
