💔

I am torn – I know this was written decades ago, so maybe that explains some of it, but as much as I like Callaghan’s writing style, I hate how every single male character in his stories are brutish, pigheaded, violent, sulky… not one of them are likeable. They all hit their wives and girlfriends and mothers and sisters. I feel like Callaghan hates both women and men. Unless you are doing a piece on violence against women, and writers who think all men are vile, please, please, please skip this one.
