Sorry, this post should be in a different thread, but i felt like getting it out of my system. what i think is a more interesting question is why many writers who have led down and out lives turn toward fascism at some point.
in fact, bukowski's favorite celine book has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with nazism or fascism at all. why bukowski liked celine has nothing to do with the fact that he was a nazi sympathizer. In answer to the "makes ya think" comment, no, it does not make me think. "you can't stand the fact that your hero celine was a nazi sympathizer" or whatnot. and the problem is that, in a lot of academic circles, taking this attitude gets labeled as apologizing for it. How many people have actually read, say, a text in which celine discusses fascism or hitler? or in which hamsun talks about the virtues of fascism? there's more going on than just that they're dirty nazis or whatever. Pound was a nazi, and bukowski liked sheri martinelli, who was a disciple of pound. Knut Hamsun (Knud Pedersen) lebte von 18 und war ein norwegischer Schriftsteller und Nobelpreisträger.
Fascism/nazism in modern writers is a really interesting area of study, and it's pretty simplistic (and dare i say ignorant) to lump them all together, and even moreso to apply the transitive property.
