But what was the rest of the story?<\/p>\n<p>Keep This Quiet! captures the fear and loathing, charm and romance of Hunter in the late Sixties\u2013along with tales of two other underground authors. Now, for the first time, with the permission of his Estate, it reveals stories, memories, and previously unpublished letters by Hunter, before and after he worked with Margaret on Hell\u2019s Angels. Included are genuine, funny\u2014or distraught\u2014letters he sent Margaret. Also, priceless reminiscences of some of Hunter&#8217;s oldest friends: William Kennedy, David Pierce, Rosalie Sorrels, Oscar Acosta, and editor Jim Silberman\u2014covered in no other account.<\/p>\n<p>But woven into the mix\u2014and into Margaret;s colorful life\u2014saved from the wreckage and trash bin of time, is a missing chapter in the life of two other outlaw writers: New York City poet genius Milton Klonsky and flamboyant Belgian poet Jan Mensaert.<\/p>\n<p>Cover image: Unknown<br \/>Cover design: Gaelyn Larrick<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":32801,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[810,809,805,808,811],"portfolio_skills":[],"portfolio_tags":[],"class_list":["post-32780","avada_portfolio","type-avada_portfolio","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-biography","portfolio_category-hunter-s-thompson","portfolio_category-keep-this-quiet-series","portfolio_category-memoir-series","portfolio_category-relationship"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Keep This Quiet!
