À propos de cet audio

 Maverick author Hunter S. Thompson introduced the world to "gonzo journalism" with this cult classic that shot back up the best seller lists after Thompson's suicide in 2005. No book ever written has more perfectly captured the spirit of the 1960s counterculture. In Las Vegas to cover a motorcycle race, Raoul Duke (Thompson) and his attorney Dr. Gonzo (inspired by a friend of Thompson) are quickly diverted to search for the American dream. Their quest is fueled by nearly every drug imaginable and quickly becomes a surreal experience that blurs the line between reality and fantasy. But there is more to this hilarious tale than reckless behavior, for underneath the hallucinogenic facade is a stinging criticism of American greed and consumerism.©1971 Hunter S.

This is an incredible work that is beautifully voice acted. It's not easy to capture Hunters unique way of writing in sound but McLarty does an excellent job. This book sent me spiraling into an obsession with hunter s Thompson's work. It's incredible. haveing read the physical copy and listening to this the one thing I can say that this version lacks from the print version is Ralph Steadman's illustrations which I think have a lot to add. if you love this book as I do it's worth getting your hands on a print version of their work.

Hunter S Thompson's voice will stay with me forevr

great book but I suggest watch the movie first to picture what's going on in the book better. the movie followed the book very well

a classic but a little dry

Not the book to read if you are trying to kick drugs, the main character makes drugs and grape fruit sound awesome

A wild book in every chapter

A very well written story of intense drug use in the desert. Hunter S Thompson is a legend. The guy reading it does a fantastic job. Very entertaining.

Terrific reading of a classic

Lots of foul language. Completely improbable scenes. In first person narrative. Enjoy if you dare!

Fun Fun Fun AND Totally Tasteless

I've seen the movie more than a hundred times and loved it but the book was ok. I had a hard time with some parts. Trying to concentrate on what was happening was hard because he jumps around so much in and out of story. all in all I did enjoy it and am glad I finally got around to the book but will not read again. loved the narrator though. i feel he really captured the essence of the situation and the utter chaos that the characters were dealing with.

good but probably won't listen again.

Could hardly put it down. Much better than the movie. I really enjoyed it. Like a 6 hour trip report on Erowid but we'll written.

A trip in itself!
