<p>On December 31, 2020, the world was shocked to learn about the death of hip-hop legend MF DOOM. Born in London and raised in the suburban enclave of Long Beach, New York, Daniel Dumile Jr.'s love of cartoons and comic books would soon turn him into one of hip-hop's most enigmatic, prolific, and influential figures.<br/><br/><i>The Chronicles of DOOM: Unraveling Rap's Masked Iconoclast</i> recounts the rise, fall, redemption, and untimely demise of MF DOOM. Broken down into five sections: The Man, The Myth, The Mask, The Music, and The Legend, journalist S. H. Fernando chronicles the life of Daniel Dumile Jr., beginning in the house he grew up in in Long Beach, NY, through to the mysterious, masked icon that he was to become. Centring the music, Fernando deftly lays out the history of east-coast rap against DOOM's life story and dissects the personas, projects, tracks, and lyrics that led to his immortality.<br/><br/>Including exclusive interviews with those who worked closely with him, the book provides an unknown, intimate, behind the scenes look into the life of MF DOOM, a supervillain on stage and hero to those who paid attention.</p>

Den bild vi har i Sverige idag av den internationella konstnärsskara som samlades i den franska byn Grez-sur-Loing under 1870- och 80-talen, präglas i hög grad av sin tids nationalistiska kulturklimat, men också av den konstruktion av platsen och fenomenet konstnärskoloni som både konstnärer och konsthistoriker skapat i efterhand.
