'...Those are the rantings of an uneducated, though successful,
fiction writer...'
heh, (as Jim diffidently writes - but which for me always
conjures up the image of a poor chap in the grip of terminal
bronchiectasis)I don't think so.
'John le Carre: ....educated Sherborne School, Berne University &,
after military service, Oxford. He taught French & German for
two years at Eton School before going into the British Foreign
Service as second secretary in Bonn & consul in Hamburg.....'
Biased, narrow-minded, snobbish, politically incorrect - possibly.
But 'uneducated' - no.
