No sé que me está pasando . Ultimamente me gustan más las películas que los libros en los que se basan . Me acuerdo que cuando vi la peli (Maravillosa pelicula con Johnny Deep y Benicio Del Toro ) me morí de la risa - si , admito que hubo alguna que otra cosirijilla involucrada que hacía todo más di...
You ever read a book where you can tell it was a magazine article padded out to book length? Here's one. Repetitive, circular and mostly boring, this is in no way worth reading.I had a little fun with Thompson's light jabs at Kesey - and having just read [b:The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test,|7442|The ...
This book of Hunter S. Thompson essays and articles covers most of his early career, especially the time period when he was writing Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Hell's Angels and the Watergate scandal. Many of these articles were incorporated into those other books, but a good portion of it hasn...
The Basics A non-fiction (well mostly) account of the 1992 presidential election. With emphasis on Thompson’s perspective. My Thoughts I’m not a politically-minded person. I know no one likes to hear that, and I don’t like saying it, but I’ve never really understood having an obsession with po...
This needed to happen. On the Road needed to happen. Burroughs, Kesey, Ginsberg, etc needed to happen. But is it good literature? For its time, yes. For all time? The jury's out. Certainly Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is good comedy, but it may also be bad everything else. Is this wisdom? Is it pu...
A very funny book that purports to be a true story. Chronicling a week in Las Vegas spent by Hunter S. Thompson and his Attorney on a drug fueled binge of misadventures. It's hard to believe that it is all true, for the simple fact, that its hard to believe that they could have actually managed t...
While reading this book I always thought (or hoped) that there would be a sense behind all this. The book is really famous and also on the 1001 list so I was always looking for some hidden meaning behind all this. But, well, I couldn't find any. The book is written in a quite fluent style so I read ...
Woah. The politics are more or less incomprehensible to me, but ocassionally things float up. It's hard to tell how much of Hunter's writing is something of a very good stylistic schtick and how much is the guy losing his mind. The writing is often great, and his loathing of Nixon so eloquent that I...
Hunter S. Thompson is the writer you want to read if you want to pull all those cool guys. They all love him, it seems, so just make a trip to some hipster café, open one if his books and wait to score.I didn’t go for the obvious “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas” but instead I read his debut, a non-f...
