"Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" by Hunter S. Thompson


Viva Las Vegas! This one is about psychodelics. About be very very on drugs. To be a LSD Junkie. Of Fear (with capital letter), paranoia, and big bats fliying over the desert. A car full of soap, a big car full of drugs, a full car: A samoan (or a spanish) advocate who travell with Mr. Duke (Or I must say Hunter S. T.) to work in a Bike Racing on Las Vegas. On this one no Elvis appear, no Tom Jones, no casinos: only lap dances, drugs, guns, cigarretes, a police convention, drugs, hitchhikers, lizzars in a bar!!, more drugs, mezcalina, LSD, cocaine, booze, pots, "White rabbit", I think that drugs again...

The author, the incredible Hunter S. Thompson said: "Far from my idea recommed to the reader drugs, alcohol, violence and insanity. But I must confessed that I don't be nothing without all this."

All one knows that Terry Guilliam made an adaptation from Hunter's book: a pretty nice one with and incredible Johnny Depp. All right, "nice" it's no the precise word to define this. Absolute crazy, perhaps. Like da' book.

Highly recommend, indeed.

Mr. Duke, doing Gonzo.
