    I expect there will be a minute's silence in the next performance
    of one of his plays, and no-one will notice.

    It's not the man but the body of work he left behind which is important.
    And considering the enormous literary impact of ... yes, you're right,
    he can **** off.

    Did anyone actually enjoy anything he wrote or were they all pretending,
    to impress their equally pseudo-intellectual friends?
