prose as tight and hard-boiled as any James Ellroy novel… Riveting, richly atmospheric pulp nonfiction
Kirkus Reviews (Starred)
Rides along on high-octane New Journalism prose, mixing onomatopoeia and jiving patois with lots of italics, man, which just might be the kind of biography that the fast-talking Hopper would have envisioned for himself.

a phenomenal read. What’s nice about it is the events are dramatic enough but the writing also just so highlights the beautiful absurdity of the whole story. great book.
