It's kind of muddy and depends on your personal beliefs on how much you think interacting with a terrible person through uncritical devouring of their works is likely to taint your own worldview. Various factors include how many people were involved, did they have the views at the time, are you capable of reading the text in a manner where you seperate yourself a bit from it, etc.

I don't think it's worth the risk personally, but I tend to view art as a communication from one person to another, rather than a commodity or a consumable. I don't particularly go out of my way to communicate with terfs who are immune to critical thinking. Also if we get down to brass tacks, it's not that good of a series.
