Synopsis
From the incomparable John Waters, renowned cult film director, artist and writer, Role Models is a paean to the power of subversive inspiration that will delight, amuse, enrich and happily horrify readers everywhere. A self-portrait told through intimate and literary profiles of his favourite personalities which range from the famous to the unknown John Waters invites readers to appreciate some of the figures who helped him form his own brand of neurotic happiness. Among many others, Role Models features Waters musings on Johnny Mathis, Comme Des Garcons founder Rei Kawakubo, actress Patty McCormack, writers Tennessee Williams, Lionel Shriver and Ivy Compton-Burnett, insane martyr Saint Catherine of Siena, English novelist Denton Welch, ex-Manson follower Leslie van Houten, lesbian stripper Zorro, artist Cy Twombly and outsider pornographers Bobby Garcia and David Hurles. From the sublime to the extreme, Role Models is a personal invitation into one of the most unique, perverse and hilarious artistic minds of our time.
