Rage of Angels: Expatriate TalesRage of Angels, in the same vein as Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, juxtaposes weirdly comic scenes from the several lives of Rick Richards, expatriate American. Sometimes real life, with its rusted Mustangs, haunted Rhineland castles, surfing sergeants, Asian chicken shops, and water babies, can dissolve into a cartoon Western or a road movie. And almost always does. |
