Best known for his novel
Trout Fishing in America , American writer, Richard Gary Brautigan (1935-1984) published eleven novels, ten poetry collections, and two story collections, as well as five volumes of collected work, several nonfiction essays, and a record album of spoken voice recordings. Brautigan’s idiosyncratic style and humor caused him to be identified with the counterculture movement of the 1960s. The authors of many of these 32 essays knew Brautigan, personally and professionally; others came to know and respect him through a cultivated connection with his writings. The essays - many of which are new, others of which were published in obscure journals - combine personal remembrance of the man and critical appraisal of his still-controversial works. The book includes previously unpublished photographs and artworks.
