I've often stated you should never read a biography of an actor or actress you like. Afterwards, you will never feel the same about them.

I guess the same can be said about authors. I enjoy Dahl's YA books. Who would have thought that someone who wrote such entertaining novels could be such an egotistical and puerile ass.

Still, the book was revealing in how Britain did its best to transform America's isolationism to willing participation in World War II. In my opinion, this was a good thing, as fascism needed to be defeated.
