Reporter Gonzo(Auto)Biography on Hunter S. Thompson’s “Kingdom Of Fear”

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to present a book Kingdom of Fear by Hunter S. Thompson in the context of reporter’s biography and the main features of gonzo journalism and New Journalism. The examination shows that Kingdom of Fear is not only a text with an autobiographical key, but also an important commentary on the author’s work, and a kind of political manifesto. This multi-thematic project is clearly reflected in a hybrid structure of the book which succinctly combines elements of journalism and personal document literature. Based on the considerations contained in the research, it can be concluded that due to the numerous forms of subjective self-presentation and autocreation, which correspond to the narrative practices typical of gonzo reportage, Kingdom of Fear can be described as a gonzo(auto)biography
