I'm not quite sure how you mean this synopsis to be taken.
Let me ask another question. Consider the title
_Hip-Hop Bitches of Gor_
This suggests the body of the manuscript will be puerile shit. (I made
it up.) Is it a bad title?
Here is another one:
_A Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglas, by Frederick Douglas_
This book is one of the few autobiographies worth reading, but is it a
crappy title?
