This book delves into humanity’s compulsive need to valorize criminals. The criminal hero is a seductive figure, and audiences get a rather scopophilic pleasure in watching people behave badly. This book offers an analysis of the varied and vexing definitions of hero, criminal, and criminal heroes both historically and culturally.
This book also examines the global presence, gendered complications, and gentle juxtapositions in criminal hero figures such as: Robin Hood,
Breaking Bad
,
American Gods
American Vandal
, Kabir, Plunkett and Macleane, Martha Stewart, Mary Read, Anne Bonny,
Ocean’s 11
Ocean’s Eleven
, and
Let The Bullets Fly
.
