I Wear the Black Hat: Grappling With Villains by Chuck Klosterman
3.0
Cute.
I hate Chuck Klosterman. He has some wonky arguments I'm this book about how we decide whom is a good guy in our minds and who is a bad guy ; or why do we hate some people and not other people who may have been equivalently nasty or dumb or rich or lucky or.....whatever gets them into the news or under our skin.
I thought it dwelt an awful lot on pop culture and then I read the author is a pop culture writer. That explains his point of view and that he really can't help it, that's what he knows.
So perhaps I hate him a little less.
And then I found that some of his anecdotes and arguments are at least semi legitimate and frequently amusing.
So maybe I don't hate him that much.
Oh, and he's from Minnesota so he's clan.
Clan is the glue that binds us so I find that now I really love Chuck Klosterman.
Why is that?
