Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas 1971 Literature

Hunter S. Thompson

An absolutely wild ride. Maybe one of the craziest books I've ever read. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is just a constant rush of adrenaline, a neverending pulse, a story that lacks a strong overarching plot, but one that quickly takes you into its paranoid anecdotes of breaking the speed limit and huffing Ether on the freeways of western America. For lack of a better word, Fear and Loathing is pure insanity. A book that you seriously should read if you're into any of Thompson's beatnik predecessors.
