My problem is that his admirers seem to be acolytes, and I can't approach a book knowing that people worship an author without my negative expectations waiting to be fulfilled. I have the same problem with Herman Hesse - although I did try to read the Glass Bead Game and thought it was adolescent rubbish.<br />As for Norwegian Wood (the song), I've always thought the narrator burns the girl's house down.Jonnynoreply@blogger.com
