New York: Random House, 1971. A classic of our time" - Cormac McCarthy First edition in book form, first printing. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was first published in November 1971 as a two-part series in Rolling Stone magazine. It was adapted into a film by Terry Gilliam in 1998, featuring Johnny Depp and Benicio del Toro in the lead roles.
"Written in the voice of Thompson's alter ego, Raoul Duke, a cynical, chain-smoking, whiskey-guzzling, gun-loving connoisseur of illicit drugs, [Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas] chronicled the chemically enhanced adventures of Duke and his companion, Dr. Gonzo, as they explored the crassness of American culture" (ANB). It is Thompson's most famous book, and its blend of fact and fiction initiated a new genre called "gonzo journalism", which rejected objectivity and placed the writer or reporter at the centre of the story. Octavo. Original black cloth backstrip with grey boards, spine lettered in silver, Ralph Steadman design decoration to front board in blind. With dust jacket. Illustrated title page and 19 line drawings by Steadman. A fine copy in near-fine jacket, lightly toned at edges, otherwise bright and sharp.
