Thompson, Hunter S.

The Curse of Lono.

Koln: Taschen, 2005. First Hardcover Trade Printing. A Fine tight copy in a Fine bright dust jacket. This is the hardcover reissue of the Paperback Original of this Thompson classic of Gonzo journalism set to Hawaiian slack-key. The Curse of Lono is to Hawaii what Fear and Loathing was to Las Vegas: the crazy tales of a journalist's "coverage" of a news event that ends up being a wild ride to the dark side of Americana. Originally published in 1983, Curse features all of the zany, hallucinogenic wordplay and feral artwork for which the Hunter S. Thompson/Ralph Steadman duo became known and loved. Item #27845
