About this product

Product Information

Paul Kemp has moved from New York to the steamy heat of Puerto Rico to work at the Daily News. He starts hanging out at Al's Backyard, a local den selling booze and hamburgers to vagrant journalists who are mostly crazy drunks on the verge of quitting. Then he meets Yeamon, whose delectable girlfriend has Kemp stewing in his own lust. But the idle tension that builds up in places where men sweat twenty-four hours a day is reaching a violent breaking point.

Book safely packaged and delivered promptly. Item as described. Very impressed by the quick delivery of this book. This is a great book (I am familiar with earlier editions) and a must have for those interested in audio recording, to get this edition for a great price was a complete no brainer. Would recommended this seller. No communication needed, really, with such a quick delivery- but clearly communicated as to dispatch. Thank you, WeBuyBooks.

  • Good read, but not the best from Hunter.

    I brought the book because of the name Hunter S. Thompson. I have read other books by him, and was of course looking for the sting found in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Sadly the book does not have the fire found in other books and pieces by Hunter, and although it is not a book to be ignored it is also not one of Hunter's best pieces either. At best it is an average read, but you will read it. If you are a first time reader of Thompson then this book maybe for you, but if you are use to his stylized approach and the runaway feel of pieces like Fear and Loathing then you will not find it here. Although that said, it is still worth a read, Hunter has a great sense of humour and writing style that captures that.
