Jeph on fan commentary

<< < (3/5) > >>

DSL:
I like Tai sometimes, sometimes not. Ditto other characters, in QC and elsewhere. I say, judge a character by how well he or she moves the story forward, not by how well he or she conforms to your politics. Ditto for the work as a whole, whether QC or any other work.

I'm really happy Jeph is able to keep a distance to people's opinions about his work. If it were me, I probably would be forced not to read anything like these forums at all.

[grammar edit..]

Carl-E:
Well, that's pretty much what he does - he rarely comes in here at all, less so now that when I joined a couple of years ago.  However, the forum he's quoting in the interview wasn't this one, and he may have come across it second hand rather than visiting himself. 

It would be hard for an artist like Jeph to completely avoid all commentary on his work, though.

Does this rule apply to "Triumph Of The Will"? Or "Birth Of A Nation" for that matter? I think there are some works where the political and social context is simply an inescapable part of one's judgement of it.
