Review of 'Monsters' on 'Goodreads'

No rating

I'm very interested in the concept of this book, but after reading the first chapter, I see this isn't going to work for me. There's too much focus on memoir-ish info and descriptions/analysis of the art itself. I haven't seen Annie Hall or Manhattan. I've seen Rosemary's Baby, but I don't remember anything. I'm more interested in a deep dive into the ethical question here and less interested in the specific artist/art.
