Book: Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma
Written by Claire Dederer and published by Knopf.
Claire Dederer started from a question: what to do about the art of monstrous men? Across the pages and across the years it took her to write this book, she kept poking, digging, cutting into the question, into herself, into some deeply uncomfortable truths. The result is some of the most funny, insightful, heartbreaking non-fiction (or should that be memoir?) I’ve ever read. The sheer humanity of it, in all its irreconcilable-and-yet-here-we-are contradictions.
