Richard Brautigan

On the eve of his departure from Eugene, Oregon, to San Francisco and worldly success, a twenty-one-year-old unpublished write named Richard Brautigan gave these funny, buoyant stories and poems as a gift to Edna Webster, the beloved mother of both his best fried and his first "real" girlfriend. "When I am rich and famous, Edna," he told her, "this will be your social security.' The stories and poems show Brautigan as hopelessly lovestruck, cheerily goofy, and at his most disarmingly innocent. We see not only a young man and young artist about to bloom, but also the whole literary sensibility of the 1960s counterculture about to spread its wings and fly.

I årene efter Anden Verdenskrig driver en 12-årig dreng rundt i en fattig forstad i Oregon. Han samler flasker, løber ærinder for naboerne eller fisker i en sø i udkanten af byen, hvor han møder forskellige sære karakterer: fordrukne savværksopsynsmænd, excentriske eneboere og et par, der tager alle deres møbler med på fisketur. Indtil en februardag i 1948, hvor et vådeskud i en nedlagt æbleplantage forandrer drengens liv for altid. I 1979 ser fortælleren tilbage på efterkrigstidens barndomsland. En verden langt væk fra forældres opsyn i et USA med motorveje, nybyggerånd, popkultur og enere uden for samfundet. Med en barnlig lethed tegner romanen et portræt af den amerikanske forestillingsverden og af volden og tragedierne i skyggen af den amerikanske drøm. Richard Brautigan (1935-1984) var en amerikansk forfatter, der brød igennem med Trout Fishing in America (1967). Så vinden ikke blæser det hele væk (opr. 1982) blev den sidste roman, han udgav i sin levetid.

Richard Brautigan (1935 – 1984) skrev under hela sitt liv – romaner, novellsamlingar – och fyra poesiböcker. Liksom hos haikumästarna syns ”den vardagsmystik som är så typisk för zenbuddhismen”, i hans korta, alltid rytmiska dikter. Han var en del av 1960-talets undergroundrörelse och ”kom att bli en av flower-power-generationens mest älskade författare”. I Richard Brautigan – Min hjärna är en taxi finner du ett urval från hans tidigaste texter. Hans mest kända verk är Öringfiske i Amerika kom ut 1967. Brautigans mest originella skrift var boken Please Plant This Book, den var ett flikförsett omslag som innehöll åtta fröpåsar, fyra till blommor och fyra till grönsaker. Varje påse var försedd med en dikt. 6000 exemplar delades ut gratis i San Francisco våren 1968. För att hylla Brautigan gav Fri Press våren 2022 ut Fröboken, med fyra diktförsedda fröpåsar.

Richard Brautigan skrev dikt, romaner, noveller og kortprosa. Gjennombruddet kom med Troutfishing in America, en helt spesiell prosabok fra 1967, som solgte i et par millioner eksemplarer og er oversatt til 22 språk, deriblant norsk, av Olav Angell. Et fyldig utvalg av diktene kom i 2004, ved Jan Erik Vold: Å føre krig mot den gjengse maratonprosa. En god setning. Og en god setning til er en mønstring av Brautigans kortprosa, hentet fra bøkene Revenge of the Lawn (1971) og The Tokyo–Montana Express (1980), samt et sentralt selvbiografisk kapittel om hans forhold til Japan. Utvalget setter opp tekstene kronologisk, og dermed geografisk, fra USAs nordvestkyst til San Francisco, deretter fra Japans hovedstad til fjellene i Montana. Boken er illustrert med oversetterens fotos fra besøket hos Brautigan.

En konføderal general fra Big Sur

En konføderal general fra Big Sur

pokkari
California, 1957. Jesse slår seg sammen med Lee Mellon, en mann som innbiller seg at oldefaren var den eneste Sørstats-generalen fra Big Sur. Men generalen finnes ikke registrert i noen bøker. Med den amerikanske borgerkrigen i bagasjen lever Jesse og Lee livet i frihet og adspredelse, og i evig opposisjon til det konforme Amerika. I umiskjennelig Brautigan-stil blandes det naive og ukonvensjonelle med eksistensiell dybde og burlesk komikk. En uformell prosa som blåser det tilsynelatende enkle opp til mytiske dimensjoner. Richard Brautigan (1935-1984) har blitt kalt «den siste beatpoet» og var en guru for 60-tallets motkultur. En konføderal general fra Big Sur var hans debutroman, og romanen fikk raskt klassikerstatus.

In a small Pacific Northwest town we meet a young man who has shot dead his best friend with a gun. The novel deals with the repercussions of this tragedy: the anguish, regret, despair and bittersweet romance. Typical of Brautigan's singular style, So the Wind Won't Blow It All Away is a beautifully written, brooding novel. Its autobiographical prose is a fitting epitaph to this complex, contradictory and often misunderstood writer.

When you hire C. Card, you have scraped the bottom of the private eye barrel. And when Card is hired to steal a body from the morgue, he needs to stop dreaming, find bullets for his gun and get there before someone else does. Not since Trout Fishing in America has Brautigan so successfully combined his wild sense of humour with his famous poetic imagination. In this parody of the hard-boiled crime novel, the adventures of seedy, not-too-bright C. Card are a delight to both the mind and the heart.

Richard Brautigan's wonderfully zany, hilarious episodic novel set amongst the rural waterways of America. Here's a journey that begins at the foot of the Benjamin Franklin statue in San Francisco's Washington Square, wanders through the wonders of America's rural waterways and ends, inevitably, with mayonnaise. With pure inventiveness and free-wheeling energy, the counterpoint to all those angry Beatniks, Brautigan tells the story of rural America, and the hunt for a bit of trout fishing. Funny, wild and sweet, Trout Fishing in America is an incomparable guidebook to the delights of exploration - of a country and a mind.

Revenge of the Lawn is Richard Brautigan in miniature and contains no fewer than 62 ultra-short stories set mainly in Tacoma, Washington (where the author grew up) and in the flower-powered San Francisco of the late fifties and early sixties. In their compacted form, which ranges from the murderously short 'The Scarlatti Tilt' to one-page wonders like the sexually poignant poetry of 'An Unlimited Supply of 35 Millimetre Film', Brautigan's stories take us into a world where his fleeting glimpses of everyday strangeness leave stories and characters resonating in our heads long after they're gone.

Jesse and Lee share a house owned by a very nice Chinese dentist, where it rains in the hall. They move to cabins on the cliffs at Big Sur where the deafening croaks of frogs can be temporarily silenced by the cry, 'Campbell's Soup'. Ultimately, we learn how the frogs are permanently silenced . . . and dreams disperse around a fire into 186,000 endings per second. In anticipating flower power and the ideals of the Sixties, Brautigan's debut novel was at least a decade before its time and remains a weird and brilliant classic.

A heartbroken American writer starts a story about an ice-cold sombrero that falls inexplicably from the sky and lands in the centre of a small Southwest town. Devastated by the departure of his gorgeous Japanese girlfriend, he cannot concentrate on his writing and in frustration he throws away his beginning. But as the man searches through his apartment for strands of his lost love's hair, the discarded story in the wastepaper basket - through some kind of elaborate origami - carries on without him. Arguments over the sombrero begin, one thing leads to another and before long all hell breaks loose in the normally sleepy town. Brautigan's fertile imagination twists and pulls at the ensuing chaos to come up with a tender, moving, surreal and incredibly funny tale that is told by a writer at the very peak of his creative powers.

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER. A book "that has very little to do with trout fishing and a lot to do with the lamenting of a passing pastoral America . . . an instant cult classic" (Financial Times). Richard Brautigan was a literary idol of the 1960s and '70s who came of age during the heyday of Haight-Ashbury and whose comic genius and iconoclastic vision of American life caught the imaginations of young people everywhere. 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 edition features an introduction by poet Billy Collins, who first encountered Brautigan's work as a student in California.

An Unfortunate Woman, An Unforgettable Journey was the final book written by Richard Brautigan before his death in 1984 and lay unpublished for sixteen years. Originally written in the 160 pages of a loose-leaf notebook, the narrator of the book is trying to come to terms with the death of a friend by going on a personal odyssey which zigzags through time and landscapes, from Oakland to Hawaii, and the wilds of Montana. An Unfortunate Woman, An Unforgettable Journey walks a fine line between fiction and memoir, between dark introspection and a lust for life, and in the last pages in particular, marks a gut-wrenching, intense, and ultimately tragic exit from fiction and life itself for the troubled author.

Richard Brautigan's last novel, published in the U. S. for the first time Richard Brautigan was an original--brilliant and wickedly funny, his books resonated with the sixties, making him an overnight counterculture hero. Taken in its entirety, his body of work reveals an artistry that outreaches the literary fads that so quickly swept him up. Dark, funny, and exquisitely haunting, his final book-length fiction explores the fragile, mysterious shadowland surrounding death. Told with classic Brautigan wit, poetic style, and mordant irony, An Unfortunate Woman assumes the form of a peripatetic journal chronicling the protagonist's travels and oblique ruminations on the suicide of one woman, and a close friend's death from cancer. After Richard Brautigan committed suicide, his only child, Ianthe Brautigan, found among his possessions the manuscript of An Unfortunate Woman. It had been completed over a year earlier, but was still unpublished at the time of his death. Finding it was too painful to face her father's presence page after page, she put the manuscript aside. Years later, having completed a memoir about her father's life and death, Ianthe Brautigan reread An Unfortunate Woman, and finally, clear-eyed, she saw that it was her father's work at its best and had to be published.
