If you Google Vonnegut, one of the most-asked questions that comes up is: “Was Vonnegut a nice person?”
I’m surprised people care that much or that it matters.
I love his books. Whoever wrote them wrote them well. The rest is his own business and that of his friends, business partners and family. Not mine certainly.
It is human that you want to know what the another person whom you idolize on some level is like. Literature must one of the areas where people care about this the most, because you spend many hours opening up your brain to their writing. It may be less important with sports for example, but I still have a hard time cheering for somebody like Kyrie Irving.
