Of course y’all already have seen the blockbuster masterpiece movie Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas starring Johnny Depp as Hunter S. Thompson himself. This book does not only contain the original Fear and Loathing story, but also Strange Rumblings in Aztlan and The Kentucky Derby Is Decadent and Depraved.

What I like with Thompson’s Gonzo journalism (not only his escapades with all kind of drugs, which is really entertaining to read) is his use of the english language. It’s straight-forward, it’s full of cursing and twisted and put to print in a most awesome way. You never get tired of reading. Not just because of all the stories are just amazingly interesting, but as I said – the inventive way of using the language is one of the best I’ve ever seen.

I enjoyed savoring each and every page, every sentence, every word. This is one of those books you wish wouldn’t end. Not a single boring chapter or passage (at 304 pages long [short] it isn’t at all enough) gets boring or making you wish you could fast-forward-read (as in the case of many other books I’ve read).

Fucking brilliant journalism. You did well, Mr. Thompson. Really fucking well.
