Автор:Hunter S. Thompson Год: 2012 Издание:Penguin Books Ltd. Страниц: 578 ISBN: 9780241960417 This is the king of Gonzo journalism's most scorching, original and inspired work for Rolling Stone, showing a writer's evolution at the magazine that he helped put on the map. From Thompson's first piece - on his infamous run for sheriff of Aspen in 1970 on the Freak Party platform - to his last essay on the Kerry/Bush showdown in 2004, via portraits of Nixon, Watergate, Vietnam and Muhammad AN, this volume also includes some articles not previously collected, as well as correspondence between Thompson and his friend and editor, Jann S.Wenner. The result is a vital portrait of a writer as he pursues his lifelong obsession: The Death of the American Dream.
