- Summary
- "This book examines the bad man as a central, recurring, misunderstood, and understudied figure in African American literature, music, and other forms. It analyzes how various iterations of bad black men and black boys serve as creative muse and inspiration for literary production. It puts a variety of contemporary African American literary and cultural works in conversation with "creativity theory.""--
