Description
Hailed by The Philadelphia Inquirer as "laugh-out-loud funny" and "a great and an unexpected joy, " The Rum Diary "reveals a young Hunter S. Thompson brimming with talent." Based on Thompson's own experiences as a reporter in Puerto Rico for The Nation, the National Journal, and the San Juan Star... Expand in the late fifties and early sixties, The Rum Diary is a brilliantly tangled love story of jealousy, treachery, and violent alcoholic lust in a Caribbean boomtown. The narrator, Paul Kemp, irresistibly drawn to a sexy, mysterious woman, is thrust into a world where corruption and get-rich-quick schemes rule, and anything (including murder) is permissible. In his signature tongue-in-cheek style, Thompson presents a dazzling, comedic romp, a fictional excursion as riveting and outrageous as his popular Fear and Loathing books. Collapse
