i’ll go first, Archers Voice.
The whole book is full of raw emotions and the real feelings of how dealing with trauma is.
It also shows you can do anything you put your mind to if you really wanted to.
It shows that two people with a horrible history can still work something out one way or another.
It shows not to take little things for granted.
it shows so much more but i don’t wanna say too much for people who havnt read it.
I second this! I own all of his works. I started with Willard and his Bowling Trophies. I thought it was so absurd, but I loved it. Trout Fishing was next I think. From then on, I was hooked. No other author has yet to make me laugh (and even cry) as much as Brautigan. Sometimes when I eat something terribly delicious, I find myself muttering “fuck me like fried potatoes.” When I taught high school English, I used to have students read “I was Trying to Describe you to Someone” from Revenge of the Lawn as a mentor text. Anyway, I love that dude and all that he offered the world for the time that he was in it.
