THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A BROWN BUFFALO by Oscar Zeta Acosta (Straight Arrow): If you've read Hunter Thompson's Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, you probably wonder who Dr. Gonzo, a boozing, doping Samoan therein, is. Well, he's really a Mexican lawyer, and this is his autobiography. Pretty weird, too.

BOB DYLAN by Anthony Scaduto (Signet): This is the book on Dylan; it is both one of the best books ever written about a rock personality, maybe the best biography and a crushing disappointment. It definitely must be read, but it�s also true that Scaduto�s dismissal of Dylan�s Golden Era, �65-�66, when he was making as tough a brand of rock as anyone before or since, is a drag. Despite that, and a tendency to make excuses for the star, this is a must.
