The American DreamBy Quinn QuarantineI admit that I only read the book after seeing the movie when I was younger; and even after hearing the song by Avenged Sevenfold "Bat Country"; but this story changed a lot about the way I think. "The American Dream" is the theme of this adventure story (though I use the term adventure in place of "drug binge fueled blaze across Nevada); and two unlikely companion take their wild "trip" to the heart of Nevada: Las Vegas to find the dream and write about it to bring home. This story is very crazy to be honest but it is time and time again one of my favourite stories. If you are into half truth and half fiction stories where it is hard to draw the line between what could have really happened and what exactly was fabricated you will enjoy the wild ride Thompson will put you through in Fear and Loathing. It has twists and turns and bizarre events at every turn. It will keep you enthralled and engaged and you can buy a ticket to take this ride safely from the comfort of your home.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Sure there are many other great novels by ThompsonBy SRPThis is the quintessential HST book in the eyes of many folk; read it and find out why. Sure there are many other great novels by Thompson; but this is arguably the most discussed no? His wild lifestyle comes alive through the pages of this wonderful literary journey.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Awesome book!By MarkHBetter to enjoy Hunter's experiences in book form than in real life. Shame he took his own life; but I respect his choice. I think he lived more in his 70+ years than I could; even if I lived past 100. I think Depp and Torres did an awesome job with the movie version. Highly underrated!
