Vain

Degraded

A discussion with a friend - do we know a writer who is an excellent writer but at the same time a bad person? Not just annoying or a tad too vain, no really degraded. Of course the name of Céline was mentioned. Later also Leni Riefenstahl, not really a writer but nevertheless.
I said: "Perhaps Tolstoy at the end of his life."
Most good writers turned out to be acceptable human beings.
