An almost unnaturally poignant love story from the father of "Gonzo" journalism and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Hunter S. Thompson.

What makes the romantic short story Screwjack so touching, for all its queerness, is the aching melancholy in its depiction of the modern man's burden: that "we are doomed. Mama has gone off to Real Estate School... and after that maybe even to Law School. We will never see her again."

Hunter S. Thompson's most searing and unnaturally poignant love story, Screwjack is simultaneously eerie and feverish, debauched and affecting. Never before -- and perhaps never since -- has modern man's melancholia been so vividly revealed in one powerful story.
