I totally agree with Micah Elizabeth regarding the jealousy, etc of Harris and I love the story Chocolat or at least the movie version with the fabulous music. It's so disappointing! I'm also irritated that she ascribes her venomous stories to bees who are way too busy working at keeping the world eating and have no time for shameful slander.

But this whole nasty business made me wonder about canaries and cuckoos. For instance 95% of singing canaries are male, not female. And cuckoos lay their eggs in other birds' nests and then kick out any hatchlings from the other bird. So I wonder if Harris laid her Honeycomb "egg" in a Dylan Thomas nest?

Whatever. The point is good job Nick for bringing all this into the light. Well done.

I was not aware of the Canary satire prior to reading this article, but it certainly doesn’t make me feel any fondness for Harris. It reeks of jealously, meanness, and a dull mind.
