Críticas:
"a comically macabre portrait of American life ... Wright may have even created his own genre of reporting ... which rather than viewing the world through a cascade of drugs and alcohol, applies the prism of a 12-step program to a society that has thoroughly assimilated [Hunter S.] Thompson's excess." (USA Today)

"Readers of Generation Kill, which recounted Wright's experiences as an embedded reporter in Iraq, will definitely want to pick up this hugely entertaining book. So will fans of first-person journalism of the sort practiced by Hunter S. Thompson and Tom Wolfe ... 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)
Reseña del editor:

Evan Wright has always had an affinity for outsiders - the people he calls 'the lost tribes of America'. Over the course of his career as an award-winning journalist, he has written about men and women with completely opposing attitudes towards today's dominant culture. But they all agree on one thing: they don't fit in.

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 über-agent turned war documentarian and hero of America's far right. Along the way he meets runaway teens in Hollywood earning corporate dollars as skateboard pitchmen, radical anarchists plotting the overthrow of capitalism from tree-sits in the Oregon rainforest and young American troops on the hunt for terrorists in the combat zones of the Middle East. His subjects are people for whom The American Dream is either just out of grasp, or something they have chosen to reject altogether.

Sometimes frightening, usually profane, and often darkly comic, Hella Nation is Wright's meticulously observed tour of the jagged edges of all those other Americas hiding in plain sight.
