{"product_id":"the-edna-webster-collection-of-undiscovered-writing-9780395974698","title":"The Edna Webster Collection of Undiscovered Writing","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn the eve of his departure from Eugene, Oregon, to San Francisco and worldly success, a twenty-one-year-old unpublished writer named Richard Brautigan gave these funny, buoyant stories and poems as a gift to Edna Webster, the beloved mother of both his best friend and his first \"real\" girlfriend. \"When I am rich and famous, Edna,\" he told her, \"this will be your social security.' The stories and poems show Brautigan as hopelessly lovestruck, cheerily goofy, and at his most disarmingly innocent. We see not only a young man and young artist about to bloom, but also the whole literary sensibility of the 1960s counterculture about to spread its wings and fly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Brautigan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mariner Books Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/16\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.24h x 5.51w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780395974698\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/30\/1999 pg. 53\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/1999 pg. 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/07\/1999 pg. 26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBrautigan, Richard:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eRichard Brautigan\u003c\/strong\u003e (1935-1984) was a god of the counterculture and the author of ten novels, nine volumes of poetry, and a collection of short stories.","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"Richard Brautigan \/ Paperback \/ English","offer_id":47579928002717,"sku":"9780395974698","price":38.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/files\/img_90242bcf-d6e0-4366-9971-0055c580bb19.jpg?v=1768899197","url":"https:\/\/booksdeli.com\/products\/the-edna-webster-collection-of-undiscovered-writing-9780395974698","provider":"booksdeli.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
