Write an MLA formatted response of approximately 600-700 WORDS to Thompson‘s Fear and Loathing
in Las Vegas. Separately — in ADDITION to the response — include an MLA formatted Works Cited page. The response should be based upon a close reading of the book, featuring summary of relevant sections
and “direct quotations” where appropriate to support your argument / claim. Be detailed. Be specific.
Write clearly and logically. Proofread: there should be no misspellings or grammatical errors. You will respond to Thompson’s book by making an argumentative (i.e., persuasive) claim about how the
American Dream operates in road literature. The subtitle of Fear and Loathing is: “A Savage Journey to
the Heart of the American Dream." Why? What‘s the author trying to say? And how is Thompson‘s take
on America similar or dissimilar to Kerouac’s take in On the Road and f or Wolfe’s in The Electric Kool-
Aid Acid Test? Free write. Brainstorm. Reread relevant sections and consider how they illuminate your argument. Remember: you are required to incorporate at least one secondary source. This source will I should speak
to the American Dream in literature. This is a common theme throughout all of American literature, not
just road books, and so there will be much written about it in journals and articles. Use of multiple
secondary sources is fine, and even encouraged. MLA format is required. Grading: 75% strength of argument; 25% grammar and formatting.
12 point Times New Roman font. 1-inch margins. Double-spaced. Stapled. Paginated.
