Having read the book years ago, it prompted another read. Like Salinger, the humor is incredible, but it is true. And like Hunter Thompson, it is crazed and cracked. One wonders if the recovery in alcoholism or recovery of 'self' as a quadriplegic is the greater miracle here. Recommend highly for anyone comprehending the daily battles of life, from religiosity to self annihilation -- or to anyone needing a strong dose of Comic Cosmic travel!
