like the way it’s everything in one place? i see

i don’t mind historical houses type of museums – there are some in my town. each tells a story of a writer or poet (there were a lot of them in this region for some reason), the way this person was raised, what affected on the way they became whoever they become, and so on

are this kind of museums are also not great in your opinion?

I went to the Ford home museum in Florida, was just ok. I feel biographies and biographical museums tend to deify people too much and are sort of irrelevant. Ok so they lived like that, so what? I am alive in a different time, and better or worse I must live in reality.

It's sort of like those idiots who deify Warren Buffet so much they even start trying to talk like him, buy coca-cola stock, look at Book to Valhe, read Benjamin Graham etc etc. Dude we don't have time machines, this isn't the 50s/60s/70s get over it.

In short: Yes I think such museums suck balls too. 😆 🤣 😂

Sorry Not Sorry. 😉 😜

your opinion is also valid, i just couldn’t agree on the irrelevant part – especially on the relationship/psychological aspects

(like “this poet had a strict mother and that’s why his opinion on women both in real life and in his books was like that” or “this author lived in middle class family yet in the poor neighbourhood so characters of this books are usually in poverty but still have some morals” and so on)

for me it’s more interesting to get this part by acting like a detective on the scene and later check if my assumptions were correct
