Book Reviews of Shock Value: A Tasteful Book About Bad Taste

Book Review: An Absolute Must-Have!
Summary: 5 Stars

This book is absolutely FANTASTIC. A genuine insight into the mind of one of the best ever cult movie makers and some of the early films he made - straight from the horses mouth (so to speak).
John Waters writes with ease about his own inimitable fashion and includes some fantastic rare pictures of many of the superb people cast in their roles, both on and off set. Mink Stole, David Lochary, Divine, Edith Massey etc....theyre all in here plus many more.
Often adored, always scorned but never equalled, John Waters gives the reader EVERYTHING they want here and much more.
If you are a John Waters fan, this book is a Must-Have and will not fail to delight. If you're not a John Waters fan or know nothing or very little about him then treat yourself to this gem. It's definitely a book that anyone will find difficult to put down - for whatever reason!
Fantastic Stuff!
