Hunter S. Thompson It has disappeared for 20 years. When he went out new The pursuit of wonder Videos about his life and work Let us remind us, he did so in a very American way: with a gun, and a moment of his own choice. Even his longtime fans who respected something about the agency that was obvious in that choice naturally regretted that he made it. Many of us have wanted to be able to read his judgments about his judgments in American politics, culture and society over the past 20 years.

At the same time, Thompson’s lifestyle recognizes that he barely allowed him to live in the late 80s (he himself expressed surprise that he had reached the 60s), and realizes that it was inexplicable from the way he wrote. That’s not to call it the main ingredient. As evidenced by a generation of copycats, in its own right, in its own right, in its own right, in its own right, the indulgence of controlled substances and the traditional narrative structure of the “gonzo journalism” recipes pioneered by Thompson. In fact, he had a healthy respect for the structure, cultivated through his early career at Workday Reportage and his voluntary training regime, including overall re-entry. Farewell to weapons and Great Gatsby.

According to the video’s narrator, Gonzo Journalism has serious questions that you actually ask. Thompson’s Most Widely Read Book Fear and disgust in Las Vegas and Fear and disgust on Campaign Trail ’72 Stand as two attempts of the answer. However, since the late 70s, his “lifelong companions of drug and chaotic behavior have come close, and the line between his larger than life characters in his work, his public persona, and his true self began to blur.”

It can be said that Thompson never recovered his deceitful clarity Fear and disgust-era, though he remained prolific until the end. Certainly, for readers who have confirmed who he really is, his last 30 years of writing is worth a lot. “He was not merely a character he portrayed in his work and public life, but he was well cared for, talented enough, and created this character to explore, understand and express the very subtle state of the world of his time.” Perhaps it would have been better if he had retired at some point in time from drugs, firearms, sunglasses, and paranoia and came up with a new persona. Why did he prevent him from doing so? Perhaps there is a concept that there is no second act in American life, as clarified by his great inspiration.
