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.
