3. Hunter S. Thompson, The Rum Diary (fiction)
A hollyweird movie starring Johnny Depp seems like a pretty good excuse to reprint the lost and found first novel of one of America’s great writing talents, the original gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson. If said novel happens to be a rum-powered cocktail of sex, greed and intrigue in the Caribbean boomtown of 1950s San Juan, Puerto Rico? Make it a double.
