Así se hilvana una biografía intelectual: conversando con abuelos, mentores, compañeros de tantas batallas, autores admirados.

Focusing on Thompson's influences, development, and unique model of authorship, Savage Journey argues that his literary formation was largely a San Francisco story.

Author Peter Richardson traces Thompson's transition during this time from New Journalist to cofounder of Gonzo journalism.

It begins a trifle before the outset of the 1929 stock market crash that led to the Great Depression. Then, it points to the difficulties, financial and otherwise, that confronted individuals and the beleaguered nation overall.

Zum 80. Geburtstag des Autors endlich wieder erhältlich: Günter Wallraff wagt sich seit Jahrzehnten in die verschiedensten Rollen, gibt sich immer wieder neue Gesichter, geht an seine Grenzen, erfindungsreich und kompromisslos. Getarnt als Hans Esser enthüllte er in seinem Buch "Der Aufmacher" die Praktiken der Bild-Zeitung. Für "Ganz unten" lebte er als Türke Ali am Rande der Gesellschaft. Er teilte das Schicksal von Obdachlosen oder ließ sich als simulierender Alkoholiker in die geschlossene Psychiatrie einweisen.

This is not a book about Iraq's history, nor an inventory of the many Middle Eastern wars that have spun out over the past twenty years, though both wars and history are part of its narrative, from the American invasion to the Arab Spring, ISIS and beyond. This is the story of a people who once lived under the rule of a megalomaniac leader who shaped the state in his own image. Then one day, after yet another war, a foreign army invaded, toppled the leader, destroyed the state, and proceeded to invent a new country.
