Мемуаристы утверждают, что Ерофеев на дух не принимал Булгакова и не мог прочесть “Мастера и Маргариту” дальше пятнадцатой страницы. Я знаю людей, которые бросили “Петушки” еще раньше.

я не понимаю фразу "на дух не принимал"
что это значит?

I don't understand the phrase "на дух не принимал"
what does it mean?

thank you

t.

UPDATE

the phrase literally means "could not stand the smell of it"
and is an idiom for "really disliked it"

thanks everyone
