Read a good portion of it, he is a good writer. Maybe that is the goal, the writing felt a bit Hunter S. Thompson gonzo style. Funny though that the more of a jerktoaster he became after being known, the longer he will be known, more than most. "I like what you've done with the character..."

Curious, what about his writing compelled you to draw the comparison to HST?
Just kind of random, rollercoaster presentation, direct experience intertwined with the overarching theme of withdrawing. The whole thing mentions writers he has read or influential to him so it is rooted in that. I guess it seems like a writing experiment as would HST maybe would do and a next step.
