Here, from the incomparable John Waters, is a paean to the power of subversive inspiration that will delight, amuse, enrich?and happily horrify readers everywhere.Role Models is, in fact, a self-portrait told through intimate profiles of favorite personalities?some famous, some unknown, some criminal, some surprisingly middle-of-the-road. From Esther Martin, owner of the scariest bar in Baltimore, to the playwright Tennessee Williams; from the atheist leader Madalyn Murray O�Hair to the insane martyr Saint Catherine of Siena; from the English novelist Denton Welch to the timelessly appealing singer Johnny Mathis?these are the extreme figures who helped the author form his own brand of neurotic happiness.Role Models is a personal invitation into one of the most unique, perverse, and hilarious artistic minds of our time.
