Förutom att det här är äckligt så är det också lite fantastiskt. Det är liksom så öppet. Jag känner att det här citatet skulle sitta fint på väggen.
Och reaktioner på det:
Maureen Johnson: It is entirely possible to be a good writer and an asshole
Mallory Ortberg: The Life of Virginia Woolf, Beloved Chinese Novelist, As Told By David Gilmour
The Belle Jar: An Open Letter to David Gilmour
Amanda Nelson: "I'm not interested in teaching books by women." A GIF Response
"I’m not interested in teaching books by women. Virginia Woolf is the only writer that interests me as a woman writer, so I do teach one of her short stories. But once again, when I was given this job I said I would only teach the people that I truly, truly love. Unfortunately, none of those happen to be Chinese, or women. Except for Virginia Woolf. And when I tried to teach Virginia Woolf, she’s too sophisticated, even for a third-year class. Usually at the beginning of the semester a hand shoots up and someone asks why there aren’t any women writers in the course. I say I don’t love women writers enough to teach them, if you want women writers go down the hall. What I teach is guys. Serious heterosexual guys. F. Scott Fitzgerald, Chekhov, Tolstoy. Real guy-guys. Henry Miller. Philip Roth."
