Mostri. Distinguere o non distinguere le vite dalle opere: il tormento dei fan
In un libro generato da un lungo pezzo pubblicato sulla Paris Review nel 2017, mentre nasceva il movimento #MeToo, e subito diventato virale e discusso, Claire Dederer coinvolge i lettori nel chiedersi: come dobbiamo convivere, oggi, con le opere di artisti (ma anche artiste) 'mostruosi'? Possiamo e dobbiamo ancora amare le opere di Hemingway, Allen, Polanski, Miles Davis, o Picasso? I geni - che chiamiamo anche 'mostri' di bravura - meritano un trattamento speciale? La responsabilità maschile è identica a quella femminile, e che cosa può far deragliare il giudizio quando l'artista è una donna, come nel caso di J.K. Rowling, o di Virginia Woolf? Dederer ammira con coinvolgimento certi film di Polanski ogni volta che li vede, ma non gli concede indulgenze o attenuanti sugli abusi: si può convivere con questa contraddizione? Sono tutte domande protagoniste di questi anni e di quelli che verranno, sui giornali e nei dibattiti in tv, ma anche negli uffici che frequentiamo ogni giorno, a cena con gli amici, e nelle nostre coscienze. Le risposte non sono mai nette, per Dederer, e proprio questo le rende delle risposte preziose e soddisfacenti. Illuminante, onesto e mai così attuale, "Mostri" è un libro scritto come una conversazione con chi legge, ricco di divagazioni interessanti, che aiuta a pensare e a discutere.

Monsters
Dilemma's van een fanIn dit openhartige, zeer persoonlijke boek dat voortborduurt op haar actuele en veelgelezen essay ‘Wat doen we met de kunst van monsterlijke mannen?’ vraagt Claire Dederer zich af: Kunnen en mogen we houden van het werk van Ernest Hemingway, Roman Polanski, J.K. Rowling, Virginia Woolf of Picasso? Krijgen genieën een speciale vrijstelling en is er een verband tussen genialiteit en monsterlijkheid? Dederer verkent de relatie van het publiek met kunstenaars, van Woody Allen tot Michael Jackson, en onderzoekt of we een evenwicht kunnen vinden tussen ons onmiskenbare gevoel van morele verontwaardiging en onze even onmiskenbare liefde voor het werk. Monsters is uiterst actueel, moreel wijs en eerlijk tot op het bot.

Genie oder Monster
Vom Dilemma, ein Fan zu sein >Kann ich die Kunst lieben, aber das Art Monster dahinter hassen?< gestellt und ein geniales, erzählendes nicht vergeistigtes Buch darüber geschrieben.« Süddeutsche Zeitung Woody Allen, Pablo Picasso, Michael Jackson - sie alle haben Großartiges geschaffen , und ihnen allen wurde vorgeworfen, etwas Schreckliches getan oder gesagt zühaben. Wie können wir mit diesem Wissen dennoch ihre Werke lieben? Dürfen wir sie noch lieben? Und lassen sich unser Sinn für Moral und unsere Liebe zur Kunst überhaupt ins Gleichgewicht bringen? Klug, tiefgründig und äußerst scharfsinnig setzt sich Claire Dederer in diesem Buch mit der Frage auseinander, ob und wie wir Künstler*innen von ihrer Kunst trennen können , und trifft damit den Kern einer hochaktuellen Diskussion . »Ausgezeichnet ... Ein Werk des tiefen Nachdenkens und der Selbstkritik, das die Unmöglichkeit der Aufgabe des Buches würdigt.« The New Yorker

Monsters
'Funny, lively and convivial... how rare and nourishing this sort of roaming thought is and what a joy to read' MEGAN NOLAN, SUNDAY TIMES'An exhilarating, shape-shifting exploration of the perilous boundaries between art and life' JENNY OFFILL'Monsters is extraordinary - engaging, enraging, provocative, and brilliant' ANN PATCHETTA passionate, provocative and blisteringly smart interrogation of how we experience art in the age of #MeToo, and whether we can separate an artist's work from their biography.What do we do with the art of monstrous men? Can we love the work of Roman Polanski and Michael Jackson, Hemingway and Picasso? Should we love it? Does genius deserve special dispensation? What makes women artists monstrous? And what should we do with beauty, and with our unruly feelings about it?Claire Dederer explores these questions and our relationships with the artists whose behaviour disrupts our ability to understand the work on its own terms. She interrogates her own responses and behaviour, and she pushes the fan, and the reader, to do the same. Morally wise, deeply considered and sharply written, Monsters gets to the heart of one of our most pressing conversations.*BBC RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK*'A blisteringly erudite and entertaining read . . . It's a book that deserves to be widely read and will provoke many conversations' NATHAN FILER'Wise and bold and full of the kind of gravitas that might even rub off' LISA TADDEO'An incredible book, the best work of criticism I have read in a very long time' NICK HORNBY

POSER
National Bestseller Ten years ago, Claire Dederer put her back out while breastfeeding her baby daughter. Told to try yoga by everyone from the woman behind the counter at the co-op to the homeless guy on the corner, she signed up for her first class. She fell madly in love.Over the next decade, she would tackle triangle, wheel, and the dreaded crow, becoming fast friends with some poses and developing long-standing feuds with others. At the same time, she found herself confronting the forces that shaped her generation. Daughters of women who ran away to find themselves and made a few messes along the way, Dederer and her peers grew up determined to be good, good, good-even if this meant feeling hemmed in by the smugness of their organic-buying, attachment-parenting, anxiously conscientious little world. Yoga seemed to fit right into this virtuous program, but to her surprise, Dederer found that the deeper she went into the poses, the more they tested her most basic ideas of what makes a good mother, daughter, friend, wife-and the more they made her want something a little less tidy, a little more improvisational. Less goodness, more joy.Poser is unlike any other book about yoga you will read-because it is actually a book about life. Witty and heartfelt, sharp and irreverent, Poser is for anyone who has ever tried to stand on their head while keeping both feet on the ground.
