Monsters: What Do We Do with Great Art by Bad People?
by Claire Dederer
challenging
hopeful
informative
inspiring
medium-paced
An essential read for anyone interested in culture and how we approach work by problematic creators. Chapter 8 was an absolute knockout, amid a sea of thundering reflections. Pacing dipped very slight l about two-thirds in but picked right up again soon after.

This book deals with ‘great art by bad people’ and goes into some detail about crimes (often sexual) of some of these ‘bad people’ — but it is presented as fact, the author does not over (or under) do it.
