Synopsis Crackpot by : John Waters
An outrageous collection from the uniquely legendary John Waters, updated with new material—including Waters’s 2002 New York Times article, “Finally, Footlights on the Fat Girls.” Crackpot, originally released in 1986, is John Waters’s brilliantly entertaining litany of odd and fascinating people, places, and things. From Baltimore to Los Angeles, from William Castle to Pia Zadora, from the National Enquirer to Ronald Reagan’s colon, Waters explores the depths of our culture. And he dispenses useful advice along the way: how not to make a movie, how to become famous (read: infamous), and of course, how to most effectively shock and make our nation’s public laugh at the same time. Loaded with bonus features, this special edition is guaranteed to leave you totally mental.

Synopsis A Crackpot's Potshot at American Politics by : Will Roberts
Will Roberts has retained the wit and country mannerisms of Will Rogers, both on stage and in his writings. The daily articles on world events and politics are as typical of our times as Rogers's daily sayings and Sunday articles of his day. I know you will enjoy the way Roberts has kept the legacy of a great journalist, skilled roper, actor, and an American icon in his writings today.

Synopsis Crackpot Palace by : Jeffrey Ford
“Jeffrey Ford is one of the few writers who uses wonder instead of ink in his pen….A rare and wonderful talent.” —Jonathan Carroll, author of The Wooden Sea Eclectic is certainly an adjective that can be used to describe the work of the phenomenal Jeffrey Ford—along with imaginative, provocative, mesmerizing, and brilliant. His powerful dark fantasy, The Physiognomy, was a New York Times Notable Book of the Year; his novel, The Girl in the Glass, won the Edgar® Award, mystery and crime fiction’s most prestigious prize. Crackpot Palace is Ford’s fourth superb collection of short fiction, and in it, his prodigious talent shines as brightly as ever. Here are twenty tales both strange and wonderful, filled with mad scientists, vampires, lost souls, and Native American secrets, from an author who has been glowingly compared to Kafka, Dante, and Caleb Carr (The Alienist).

There is a saying on the Camino de Santiago: 'The Camino provides'. But will it for The Lovelies? Aubrey wonders if walking 800km across Spain isn't the most crackpot idea she's ever had. The events of the last two years have left her reeling and a nice wander seems like a great way to bury her head in the sand awhile. But when Aubrey meets Georgina and Pam, she suddenly needs to figure out how much of her truth she is willing to share. Georgina possesses a gift she is reluctant to explore and is trying to find where she fits in her own world. And Pam, despite looking like a Granny, swears like a sailor and is obsessed with all things Camino. Aubrey senses they are holding back truths of their own. Will the Camino provide the answers they're looking for? Or will it provide answers to questions they hadn't even thought to ask? Camino Wandering is a fictional tale about the strength of three women, learning what it takes to know, support, and love each other - including themselves - no matter where the trail takes them.
