For people who read Sylvia Plath's work, weren't you repulsed by how superficial and racist her personality is?

She used the N word and made racist references, I understand she lived back when racism was acceptable but I'm just not enchanted by any personality that's racist when acceptable

I don't think it's a prevalent feature of her work, and I doubt you'll find one writer of whatever gender or culture that hasn't written something that could be deemed racist or sexist.
