5.0 Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream
J'ai changé d'opinion finalement... c'était juste trop intense et trippant - et drôle et méchant et intelligent vers la fin. Un classique, même si c'est à la fois plus "adolescent" et moins politique que je ne le croyais.

I love this book. It had me laughing out loud at the absurdity of it all. I like many others, saw the film long before I read the movie and it has always been one of my favourites. The book, I think, is very similar to the film so naturally, I loved it too.
