I'm going to have to dig them out again. I'll track down that article on my friend Lionel - I couldn't decide whether I agreed with her or not - what <B>is</B> the responsibility of the artist in creating characters and scenarios that are inflammatory? To say 'people will make up their own minds' is disingenuous - I think art is more powerful than that.Stegetroniumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15881823966680751798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24519117.post-1158495555719759262006-09-17T22:19:00.000+10:002006-09-17T22:19:00.000+10:00Ellis is one cool dude (but it is rough all the sa...Ellis is one cool dude (but it is rough all the same)- I think my fave of all those beliefs is the first one, "It is terrible, nearly the end of the world, when things are not the way I want them to be..." I hear this in my head often, it's a great salutory reminder of what not to think innit.<BR/> Good on you for going to hear Shriver out anyhow - I thought she got a bit of a rough deal from young Nike B. too. It is tiresome to read pieces that suggest that an author IS her fiction and not actually a person in her own right.There's an extensive report on what she said in today's Inquirer (Aust. again).genevievehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02895689949182365454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24519117.post-1158456321335477622006-09-17T11:25:00.000+10:002006-09-17T11:25:00.000+10:00We Need to Talk about Kevin is worth reading - the...<I>We Need to Talk about Kevin</I> is worth reading - the narrator is annoying but it really made me think about nature vs nurture - are some people just born evil, or antisocial, or do they get made that way? & also assumptions about the automatic-ness of mother love. I don't think it's great literature but they are fascinating ideas.Stegetroniumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15881823966680751798noreply@blogger.com
