This book studies the literary merit of Monáe's multimedia body of work, the political relevance of her science-fictional themes and aesthetics, and her role as an Atlanta-based pop icon. The exploration of the lavish world-building present in Cindi's story, and the many literary, cinematic, and musical influences brought together to create it, will blend with a history of Monáe's career, including the trials of developing of a full-length concept album in an industry overwhelmingly devoted to the production of marketable singles. The stories of Cindi and Janelle are inextricably entwined, each making the other more compelling, fantastical, and deeply felt.
