The 50th-anniversary edition of the classic, savagely comic account of a trip to Las Vegas that came to represent what happened to America in the 1960s-and a founding document of gonzo journalism-featuring the original artwork by Ralph Steadman and a new introduction by Caity WeaverFirst published in Rolling Stone magazine in 1971, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is told through Hunter S. Thompsons story of an assignment he undertook with his attorney to visit Las Vegas and check it out. The book stands as the final word on the highs and lows of that decade, one of the defining works of our time, and a stylistic and journalistic tour de force. As Christopher Lehmann-Haupt wrote in The New York Times, it has a kind of mad, corrosive prose poetry that picks up where Norman Mailers An American Dream left off and explores what Tom Wolfe left out.This 50th-anniversary Modern Library edition features Ralph Steadmans original drawings, a new introduction by New York Times writer Caity Weaver, and three companion pieces selected by Thompson: Jacket Copy for Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Strange Rumblings in Aztlan, and The Kentucky Derby Is Decadent and Depraved.
