Beschreibung
An insightful guide to the life and literary career of gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson
Hunter S. Thompson (1937–2005) pushed the boundaries of storytelling. While the writer is most recognized for the genre-bending work, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1972), in Understanding Hunter S. Thompson, Kevin J. Hayes provides a broad and nuanced analysis of Thompson's multifaceted career and unique literary voice. Following a biographical introduction, Hayes examines the different roles Thompson played throughout his literary career, providing a view of his work unlike any previously published biographical or critical study. The ensuing chapters examine Thompson's work in his various capacities as a foreign correspondent, literary critic, New Journalist, gonzo journalist, campaign writer, anthologist, letter writer, and novelist. Hayes draws on previously unrecorded articles, correspondence, and interviews to inform his insightful analysis. Written in an engaging and propulsive style, Understanding Hunter S. Thompson is essential reading for scholars and fans.
