Santa Barbara :: Capra Press,, 1989.. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine copy in a Very Good plus unclipped dust jacket with light sunning to the spine. For 18 years, Keith Abbott was one of Brautigan's closest friends especially early on in Brautigan's writing career. Abbott paints a portrait of Richard Brautigan as a lovable and whimsical friend. Abbott explains the writer's dedication to the art of fiction and his quest to break beyond the pop culture, hippie label that haunted him until his suicide in1984. Brautigan's tight prose inspired authors such as Haruki Murakami, and his experimentation with the line won him accolades from authors like Ishmael Reed, Raymond Carver, and Michael McClure. His work is highly influential and Abbott draws a clear connection between Brautigan's life and his writing. This book is essential for anyone who is interested in the work of Richard Brautigan. As Raymond Carver wrote, "Truly the best thing I've ever seen written of the man."
