Clouds Card
Richard Brautigan (1935 – 1984) was an American poet and novelist, best known for his novels Trout Fishing in America (1967) and In Watermelon Sugar (1968). His work is by turns dark, funny, satirical, and surreal. According to his friend, writer Thomas McGuane, "He was a gentle, troubled, deeply odd guy." A darling of the counterculture, his work fell out of favor in Ronald Reagan’s America (though he remained big in Japan and Europe). In 1984, he took his own life at his cabin in Bolinas, CA.
