By Nikita Nikhil Modified 02 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share JK Rowling was criticized online for the plot of a character of her newly released book. (Photo by Anadolu Agency/Getty Images) British author JK Rowling was slammed online after her new book, The Ink Black Heart, hit the stands on August 30, 2022. As per Rolling Stone, the new book, which was penned under the 57-year-old writer's pseudonym Robert Galbraith, features a character named Edie Ledwell, whose plot appears to mirror what Rowling went through in recent years.

She gets criticized for being transphobic, ableist, and racist after one of her cartoons gets called out and is ultimately found dead a few days later. Fans were quick to connect the new character to JK Rowling's present life, who is not new to being called out for her controversial and transphobic comments.Twitter reacts to JK Rowling s new book
JK Rowling has been making headlines over the past few years for publicly supporting and making controversial comments on social media. In 2019, the Harry Potter author made headlines for supporting researcher Maya Forstater, who was fired from her job over transphobic statements. In 2020, Rowling faced immense criticism after she mocked an article that used the term "people who menstruate" rather than "women." After her new book was released, several Twitter users slammed Rowling for creating a plot that was full of "racism, anti-Semitism," "misogyny," and "fat shaming," while connecting the lead character's experience with her own life.
