HTML: Curious about her enduring love for Richard Brautigan's work, Allison Green embarks on a roadtrip tracing the route of his most famous work, Trout Fishing in America.

The Ghosts Who Travel With Me speaks to a forgotten generation while breaking the confines of traditional memoir No library descriptions found. |

The obvious answer to this problem: Road Trip. Green drives to Idaho with her partner, Arline, seeking out the camp site that Brautigan had camped in. Green's family was from Idaho, sot the trip combines literary and family memories. She reminisces about her childhood, describes her relationship with Arline, and talks about Brautigan and his strengths and shortcomings. You don't actually have to read Trout Fishing to enjoy this book. (I haven't). I think it might help to have a sort of Pacific Northwest, baby-boomer mentality.
At any rate, I did enjoy this book, and think I may look our for Trout Fishing in America. ( )
