Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and Other American Stories (Modern Library)

Discover the unforgettable journey that captured the essence of America in the 1960s! Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and Other American Stories, the ground-breaking work of gonzo journalism by Hunter S. Thompson, is now available in a special 50th-anniversary edition.

Immerse yourself in the wild and humorous account of Thompson's trip to Las Vegas as he embarked on an assignment to "check it out." This influential book is a must-read for anyone seeking insight into the highs and lows of an era that defined our time.

With its mad, corrosive prose poetry, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas digs deeper than Mailer's An American Dream and explores the uncharted territories overlooked by Tom Wolfe. As Christopher Lehmann-Haupt of The New York Times said, this book is a true stylistic and journalistic tour de force.

Featuring original artwork by Ralph Steadman, this 50th-anniversary Modern Library edition is enriched with three companion pieces selected by Thompson himself: "Jacket Copy for Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas," "Strange Rumblings in Aztlan," and "The Kentucky Derby Is Decadent and Depraved." You won't find a more complete and captivating edition anywhere else!
