I loved it. I maybe rate it lower than I should since it already seemed to familiar. Full of cliches, like Shakespeare. I had maybe read it once way back when, but I don't remember. So better late than never and all that.

As commentary on the end of the 60s? I guess it's commentary. I think of it more as a snapshot of post-hippie burnout in 1971, more color than commentary. But, yeah. Awesome. Raoul Duke and Gonzo Journalism - LOL.
