“I always wanted to write a book that ended with the word Mayonnaise": First Edition of Richard Brautigan's Trout Fishing in America
First edition of this work “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). Octavo, original illustrated wrappers. Cover photograph by Erik Weber. In near fine condition.
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.
