Monsters: What Do We Do With Great Art By Bad People? by Claire Dederer

5.0

challenging dark funny fast-paced

I bought this book as an act of love for myself. It was not what I expected. The personal thread, particularly in what I think of as the ‘third act’ just made it. Because (as Dederer explains) any consumption of art is a two way relationship. I felt I could gulp the message of this book whole.
