Great writer, horrible person. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was my first favorite book. I saw the play about his life, Giant, on Broadway last month. I was happy to see John Lithgow win the Tony award for best actor. Coincidentally, I first saw John Lithgow in the movie adaptation of John Irving's The World According to Garp which was my favorite book and Bible when I was in college. Seems like yesterday, but it was long ago.
