I dream of strange horizons‚ where the sun never sets. I dream of strange lands where the sky is strange to me.

who come quickly to my mind whenever I hear or see images of American patriotism are John Steinbeck and Hunter S. Thompson. As different as these two men are‚ their writing is similar in that the American Dream constantly fails their characters. Both seek to define America and the American Dream‚ however‚ it remains seemingly elusive‚ and both writers fail to find it.
