Daily Bookshot: Fear and Loathing in a 2nd-hand Bookshop

I was chuffed to bits to stumble across a 2nd-hand copy of Hunter S. Thompson’s Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas recently, not least because it was a Flamingo Modern Classics edition which is lavishly illustrated throughout with the cartoons of Ralph Steadman. Sadly the Flamingo imprint is no more, but thankfully this Steadman illustrated work of ‘gonzo journalism’ lives on, under the HarperCollins’ Harper Perennial imprint. I suggest you go check it out.

About Rob

Rob, a self-confessed bibliophile, is without any hope of rehabilitation. He gets unnaturally excited over anything book-shaped, and if book sniffing were a crime then he would have been locked up years ago (which wouldn't bother him in the slightest provided his cell was lined with books)
