My favourite writer of all time. I own every book she's ever written. I've read the cover off multiple copies of Written on the Body.

Jeanette brings her soul wherever she goes. I was looking at the flowers while listening to her.

She' s so strongly genuine. We are reading her in The Reading Experience. Nobody leaves her books untouched.

We see in others what we have inside ourselves. Anyone who dislike Jeanette Winterson if full of envy, has not accomplished much or is very insecure.

The Passion was a life-changer!!! Don't like her taking some credit about how memory works, though...Gore Vidal wrote Palimpsest (a writing OVER, as to how one remembers) about his life...and many have metaphored the peeling away of an onion...so she hasn't exactly told you to watch out for "new" theories

If you have nothing to say, why make youself look foolish in public? She may not be the best, but she has something serious and intelligent to say, and expresses it well. I think you just have an agenda. Anyone who really knows some literature knows there are "writers" not worthy to tie her shoelaces.
