A Wildly Funny and Shockingly True Compendium of the Bad Boys (and Girls) of Western LiteratureRock stars, rappers, and actors haven't always had a monopoly on misbehaving. There was a time when authors fought with both words and fists, a time when poets were the ones living fast and dying young. This witty, insightful, and wildly entertaining narrative profiles the literary greats who wrote generation-defining classics such as The Great Gatsby and On the Road while living and loving like hedonistic rock icons, who were as likely to go on epic benders as they were to hit the bestseller lists. Literary Rogues turns back the clock to consider these historical (and, in some cases, living) legends, including Edgar Allan Poe, Oscar Wilde, Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, Dorothy Parker, Hunter S. Thompson, and Bret Easton Ellis. Brimming with fasci- nating research, Literary Rogues is part nostalgia, part literary analysis, and a wholly raucous celebration of brilliant writers and their occasionally troubled legacies.

Marjorie Mayfield is a big lady with an even bigger problem. She has a knack for killing off the innocent folks at the retirement community to keep her estate sale business afloat, but that special skill does not seem to help her when she is deep, deep, deep in debt to the neighborhood Slavic mob, then faced with hot competition from a pair of eager-beaver whiz kids, and then given a do-or-die mission to kidnap some of the local color. So, in a world where crimecopters chase illegal ice cream smugglers, Pekingese are sidekicks to assassination, and folks somehow do the right thing, how is it going to turn out for someone like Marjorie Mayfield?
