Richard Brautigan was born in Tacoma, Washington where he spent much of his youth, before moving to San Francisco where he became involved with other writers in the Beat Movement. During the Sixties he became one of the most prolific and prominent members of the counter-cultural movement, and wrote some of his most famous novels including Trout Fishing in America, Sombrero Fallout and A Confederate General from Big Sur. He was found dead in 1984, aged 49, beside a bottle of alcohol and a .44 calibre gun. His daughter, Ianthe Brautigan, has written a biography of her father, You Can't Catch Death.
Richard Brautigan was a literary idol of the 1960s and 1970s whose comic genius and iconoclastic vision of American life caught the imagination of young people everywhere. He came of age during the Haight-Ashbury period and has been called "the last of the Beats." His early books became required reading for the hip generation, and on its publication Trout Fishing in America became an international bestseller. An indescribable romp, the novel is best summed up in one word: mayonnaise. This new edition includes an introduction by the poet Billy Collins, who first encountered Brautigan's work as a student in California.

评分书看了,看完以后忍不住又去买了英文原版。是很好的文学作品。喜欢嬉皮士文化的人会喜欢这种文学。梦幻又有诗意。和60-70年代美国的一些电影一样,尤其是美国电影The Easy Rider(逍遥骑士),在里面你就能看到嬉皮士文化的浓厚的影子。嬉皮士文化,在我理解就是原始共产主义。...
评分 评分简直是钓鳟鱼群像!满篇都是跳跃来去的鳟鱼,这些饱含丰富蛋白质的肉类,到底都指代了什么?准备好一张纸,一张白纸,两面都干干净净,就为了专门写个对照表。但很快我放弃了,另一个说法闪现在我脑海:他不是煞费苦心地去把鳟鱼比喻成什么,鳟鱼的比喻性是与生俱来的。在美国...
评分把文字当变形玩具一样玩的作品。嗯。很有意思的作家呢
