About
THE HELL'S ANGELS LETTERS: Hunter S. Thompson, Margaret Harrell and the Making of an American Classic (Norfolk Press 2020 and 2021), in collaboration with Ron Whitehead, is one of the latest publications by Margaret A. Harrell. And well worth waiting for. This elaborate full-color coffee table book takes Keep This Quiet! to new heights, focused on Hunter S. Thompson, with scans of his letters to Margaret as primary documents, a collector's delight - Hunter in his prime. See how he goes through his publishing ordeal as an unknown book author, Margaret at his side pushing, pummeling, getting him to meet deadlines.
"KEEP THIS QUIET!" IV, revised edition: "ANCIENT SECRETS REVEALED" was overhauled top to bottom after I found writings by me in my garage. If you like a good, suspenseful experiential story in the spirituality and the Personal Transformation genre, check it out and consider ordering. A tip: there's quite a bit of subtle energy phenomena in it, with illustrations of "Computer PK," mind through matter. Does that exists? This book says yes resoundingly.
"KEEP THIS QUIET!" III was launched at the 2014 Gonzo Fest in Louisville. There are YouTube snippets on http://www.margaretharrell.com related to KEEP THIS QUIET! I and II. I recount the back story of Hunter S. Thompson at Random House during the publication process. And his friendship and romantic relationship with me.
Bio snippets: I was three times a Fellow at MacDowell Colony for artists. Upon marrying a Belgian poet, I lived in Morocco, then took a sharp turn into spiritual growth. In Zurich at the C. G. Jung Institute, I had a dramatic "Confrontation with the Self," or as Jung termed it, "Confrontation with the Unconscious." My "Love in Transition" series burst at the seams to absorb the jolts in consciousness that followed.
Late bulletin 2026; LOVE IN TRANSITION in one giant Limited Edition published and printed by Norfolk Press, like the Letters book is coming out imminently. Also, in paperback. As well check out my AUDIOBOOKS of The Hell's Angels Letters, narrated by me, along with Ron Whitehead (as Hunter). And Space Encounters II Rev: An Underground Principia in print and audio, again with myself and Ron Whitehead as narrators, in this case with Taiji Master Jef Crab playing shamanic instruments, providing dramatic mood and vibration shifts in the sounds. Look for that one under Quantum Theory, which is where Audible put it. I had it under Mind, Body, Spirit. It explores connectedness, now that we know about the quantum world, which Newton, when he wrote about gravity's effect on attraction at a distance, had no inkling of and was baffled by.
And if you like interview style about shamanic and Taoist principles and experiences, check out Stop All the Clocks; more Conversations with Shaman, Taiji Master, Rainforest Activist Jef Crab, just out in print and in post-production in audio, narrated by Jef, myself, and Ron. Finally, I have four poetry books.
