The cultural critic questions how modern people understand the concept of villainy, describing how his youthful idealism gave way to an adult sympathy with notorious cultural figures to offer insight into the appeal of anti-heroes.

I thought that the essays in this book were a bit “heavier” than others, which is to be expected from the title. Quick read, but definitely worth it. The essays also seemed to connect two more significantly different subjects a la Malcolm Gladwell.
