He was born in 1928.

And it’s okay to say Dick, as that was his actual name.

I can't believe op actually censored his name. Like WTF.

It's disturbing how willing people are to self-censor for TikTok and Instagram. Makes me want to unal!v3 or sew3r slide.

You’re surprised that a man born before the Great Depression writes exaggerated pro-life stories?

Imagine how different YOUR beliefs would be if you were born and raised 100 years ago.

Apologies, but your post does not contain enough for people to engage in conversation. Do you have something else to say about the book that you could edit into the text? Let me know if you edit it and I will reinstate your post.

Or, if you would prefer to share quick/brief reactions to a book you are currently reading or recently finished, you can comment in our weekly What We're Reading thread, accessible from our header atop the sub. Your book may even appear in the sub banner! Thank you.

Imagine how regressive some opinions OP holds will be in 100 years, absolutely disgusting

I guess it makes sense if a platform flags or removes comments with keywords like suicide but you still want to talk about it.

Apologies I didn't mean to misspell his name

No worries. And apologies if I made you uncomfortable — I assumed that the misspelling was deliberate.
