description: Hunter S. Thompson was the creator of a new kind of journalism and invented a new style of writing. Gonzo was a wild often drug- and drink-fuelled adventure in which Thompson examined the politics people and values of his times.In the three great collections of Gonzo writings The Great Shark Hunt Generation of Swine and Songs of the Doomed he dissected the 60s 70s and 80s with violence wit anger and occasional compassion.Collected together for the first time The Gonzo Papers Anthology is an indispensable compendium of decadence depravity and a remarkably skewed common sense.'No other reporter reveals how much we have to fear and loathe yet does it so hilariously' Nelson Algren
