Bloom notes that all the characters in Wonderland (as opposed to say Oz) are “thoroughly unpleasant” and I agree. Entertaining, but unpleasant.
What other worlds are like this? Even HHG is only about 75% unpleasant (Trillian and Ford Prefect are pleasant, Marvin’s ok)

I think I really resonate with such worlds.
Discworld is only about 30% unpleasant characters which is about the lower limit for me to turn into a fan.

The real world? I’m reading Blood Meridian and I hate everybody but it’s equal parts beautiful and brutal

's fantasy definitely falls into that category. In fact a lot of modern fantasy.

The Star Wars prequels (but minus the part where they’re entertaining)

Watching Barry might not be healthy for me... I keep wanting to kill every character.
But then, I felt this way about Friends and Senfeld, too.
