About the book

'A phalanx of motorcycles cam roaring over the hill from the west ...the noise was like a landslide, or a wing of bombers passing over. Even knowing the Angels I couldn't quite handle what I was seeing.' Huge bikes, filthy denim and an aura of barely contained violence; the Hell's Angels could paralyse whole towns with fear, so terrible was their reputation. But how much of that reputation was myth and how much was brutal reality? Only one man could discover the truth about these latter-day barbarians; Hunter Stockton Thompson, Dr Gonzo himself, the man who saw the fear and loathing in the heart of the American dream. This counter-culture classic is the hair-raising result.

    My fascination with this author is inexhaustible. This topic I have absolutely no interest in, so I couldn't really enjoy it as a story, but I did flip through the pages just for the sake of reading Thompson's writing. This book could have been a grocery list and I would have done the same. His style is impeccable. I am not sure how to rate this one, so I'll skip the stars part.
