Hella Nation by Evan Wright

Hella Nation by Evan Wright

Hella Nation charts Wright's deeply personal journey, from his stark but sympathetic portrayals of sex workers in Porn Valley to his raw portrait of a Hollywood uber-agent turned war documentarian and hero of America's far right.

"A comically macabre portrait of American life..Wright may have even created his own genre of reporting." * USA Today *
"Priceless... staggering... takes your breath away" * Metro *
"Readers of Generation Kill will definitely want to pick up this hugely entertaining book. Funny, mesmerizing, frightening, and mind-boggling" * Booklist *
"[Evan Wright's] style owes more to Hunter S. Thompson than to any sort of political correctness" * Newsday *
"Vivid confirmation of the arrival of a major chronicler of those who live on or beyond the margins of the American mainstream" * Kirkus Reviews *
