false <![CDATA[Most Outrageous: The Trials and Trespasses of Dwaine Tinsley and Chester the Molester]]> 2569904 1 The unsettling saga of Larry Flynt's most notorious protegè. In May 1989, Dwaine Tinsley stood at the summit of an unlikely career. The product of a broken, trailer-trash marriage, he was a high school dropout who had decided to become a professional cartoonist while serving a six-year sentence in a Maryland prison for burglary. As cartoon editor for Larry Flynt's notorious Hustler magazine, he had assembled a staff of pen-and-Wite-Out-wielding Lenny Bruces whose unprecedentedly offensive socio-sexual cartoons had spearheaded that publication's fight against the forces of censorship and repression that sought to overthrow the political and cultural gains of the 1960s. His primary personal contributionspawned amidst a national hysteria that saw a plague of child sexual abuse arising everywhere from pre-school staffs to satanic sectswas "Chester the Molester," a hulking middle-aged man who craved pre-pubescent girls. And then Tinsley's teenage daughter accused him of sexually violating her over the course of five years. And the prosecution in his ensuing criminal trial cast several storage boxes full of his cartoons against him. Most Outrageous is the story of the trial of Dwaine Tinsley as well as the story of Tinsley's family life. Bob Levin's writings have established him as one of the most thought-provoking chroniclers of cartoonists today. While focusing upon the work and lives of the most offbeat creators in the field in order to champion the pursuit of individual vision, no matter how unorthodox or inflammatory, he has explored issues common to artists of every medium. Most Outrageous carries his search onto new, unsettling ground. 2580040 1 5 2008 Most Outrageous: The Trials and Trespasses of Dwaine Tinsley and Chester the Molester total:4|5:0|4:0|3:1|2:0|1:0| 4 17 8 0 3 0 false false Wed Oct 28 09:45:46 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 28 09:45:46 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun May 10 10:45:14 -0700 2009 Sun May 10 10:45:14 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Jan 05 13:00:21 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 05 13:00:24 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Sun Dec 28 19:35:27 -0800 2008 Sun Dec 28 19:35:27 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Sun Nov 30 17:11:04 -0800 2008 Sun Nov 30 17:11:06 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Wed Nov 19 12:16:05 -0800 2008 Wed Nov 19 12:16:05 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Tue Nov 11 12:39:13 -0800 2008 Tue Nov 11 12:39:13 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Sun Aug 10 18:02:48 -0700 2008 Sun Aug 10 18:02:48 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=2569904
