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.
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。...

把文字當變形玩具一樣玩的作品。嗯。很有意思的作傢呢
评分Great fishing skills. It’s a pity that I couldn’t buy my own stream. ;) Also a pity that mom forgot the mayonnaise!

评分誰來翻譯一下吧,美國文學經典之一。作者很早就診斷齣精神分裂,常年酗酒,49歲自殺。不過這不能成為被忽略的理由吧。。
评分"Expressing a human need, I always wanted to write a book that ended with the word Mayonnaise."
