An Intimate Look At The King Of Gonzo Journalism Comic, erotic and shocking, Hunter: The Strange and Savage Life of Hunter S. Thompson is a close up look at one of America's most iconic figures. The father of gonzo journalism, Hunter changed the face of 20th century American literature. He was notorious for living his work, and often told of his drug-induced and alcohol-fueled adventures with more detail than the story he was reporting on. His bestselling books such as Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas remain hugely popular today. A self-confessed political junkie, Hunter S. Thompson raged against our elected officials all the way up to--and especially--the president, calling them out with a powerful brew of humor and social criticism laced with sarcasm and profanity. Hunter also involved himself directly in politics when he announced his candidacy for sheriff of Aspen, Colorado, running on a radical Freak Power platform, which called for the legalization of marijuana--and he almost won. In Hunter: The Strange and Savage Life of Hunter S. Thompson celebrated author and journalist E. Jean Carroll shows us the person behind the persona that was Hunter S. Thompson. Carroll knew the people who knew Hunter, from family and friends, to former girlfriends and his ex-wife, to celebrities and politicians. She delivers an enlightening perspective of a man who was often overshadowed by his own myth.
