Table of ContentsReviewsBrautigan is a folk-artist, a master storyteller -- SARAH HALL There is nothing like Richard Brautigan anywhere * San Francisco Sunday Examiner & Chronicle * The beauty of Brautigan's writing is its dryness - the way absurd or fantastical events are described in a completely deadpan manner -- JARVIS COCKER An absolute original who found cause for celebration in the most unlikely places * Guardian * Author InformationRichard 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.
