Más información sobre el libro

The book delves into Thompson's complex relationships, particularly with his father, a fallen sheriff, and the women who inspired both his love and his darker narratives. It explores themes of addiction, censorship, and the influence of Hollywood on his work. Through a blend of empathy and unflinching honesty, it illuminates the more shadowy aspects of human nature, making it a poignant tribute to a distinctive American voice. Accompanied by 57 photographs, it offers a rich visual context to Thompson's life and art.
