It is, isn't it.
I love to read, I have thousands of books and ebooks. But I *am* selective in my choices; to date I've never purchased or read a single work by Alan Kaufman. What saddens me is that his attitudes expressed in his screed so clearly show his state of mind and personal viewpoints that I now have NO desire to read any of his work.
It would be, to me, as if I were a customer of an automated broadloom owner who's just watched the factory smashed only to be confronted by one of the saboteurs, a handloom weaver, approaching me to demand that I now buy *his* products - at a much higher price, of course!
That just *isn't* going to happen.
