abstract
  • Evan Alan Wright (born 1966) is an American writer, best known for his extensive reporting on subcultures for Rolling Stone and Vanity Fair, sometimes using his full name: Evan Alan Wright. He is best known for his book on the Iraq War, Generation Kill. In 2012 he wrote an expose about a top CIA officer who allegedly worked as a mob hit man, How to Get Away With Murder in America. Though some compare his writings to those of Hunter S. Thompson, Wright claims his biggest literary influences were Mark Twain and British-American author Christopher Isherwood. The New York Times called his military writing "nuanced and grounded in details often overlooked in daily journalistic accounts" and noted his use of "gallows humor."
