Author Criticized for Manichean Views

El País

A Spanish author is being criticized for presenting a simplistic, 'manichean' view of good and evil in his children's books. The author, Roald Dahl, is described as inventing characters with a clear distinction between heroes and villains, drawing from his own experiences in a British boarding school. This approach is seen as a potentially harmful representation of life, focusing on a dualistic worldview.
