Not all evil though

[undyingking]

On a more positive note, though, the author of one of the ten most important books in the history of SF and fantasy* was this morning seen to say, about an observation of mine re the later, rather depressing Moomintroll books: "I think you are absolutely right and I hadn't thought of that."

In my current migrainous and frustrated-by-lots-of-ringing-round-unhelpful-people state, I'll cling to that affirmation.
