Hella Nation

Read Evan Wright's posts on the Penguin Blog.

The "New York Times" bestselling author of "Generation Kill" immerses himself in even more cultures on the edge.

Evan Wright's affinity for outsiders has inspired this deeply personal journey through what he calls "the lost tribes of America." A collection of previously published pieces, "Hella Nation" delivers provocative accounts of sex workers in Porn Valley, a Hollywood uber-agent-turned-war documentarian and hero of America's far right, runaway teens earning corporate dollars as skateboard pitchmen, radical anarchists plotting the overthrow of corporate America, and young American troops on the hunt for terrorists in the combat zones of the Middle East
