What do you think about the Rum Diaries?

Read it yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised. It's not as good as Thompson's other stuff, mostly for the empathical distance fiction puts between the reader and the protagonist, but it was a fine literary work, a sober reflection on existence and hope and other American stuff. Some fine prose too.

I found it OK but not memorable - which figures, since he wrote it at 22.

Shit, really? I turned 22 a month ago. This is either depressing or inspiring.

I liked it quite a bit. Surprisingly potent meditation on aging from a 22 year old.
