Richard Brautigan was an American novelist, poet and short-story writer associated with the countercultural scene in San Francisco during the 1960s and 1970s. He published ten novels, two short-story collections and ten books of poetry, gaining international recognition chiefly for Trout Fishing in America (1967), which made him a prominent voice for the alternative youth of the era and sold millions of copies.
His work blends humor, surreal imagery and a lyrical tone, as in In Watermelon Sugar (1968) and The Abortion: An Historical Romance 1966 (1971). He also performed as a poet on the West Coast poetry circuit and in underground venues, taking part in collectives such as The Diggers and contributing to alternative publications.
The success of Trout Fishing in America gave him temporary financial independence and a cultural visibility that endured beyond his main literary career. Throughout his life Brautigan worked across genres and appeared in magazines and spoken-word recordings, leaving a legacy of experimental writing that influenced American counterculture.
