Unfortunate Woman
Richard Brautigan
Dark, funny, and exquisitely haunting, the author's final book before his
suicide explores the fragile, mysterious shadowland surrounding death.
Told with wit and irony, An Unfortunate Woman assumes the form of a
peripatetic journal chronicling the protagonist's travels and oblique
ruminations on the suicide of an acquaintance, and a close friend's death
from cancer.
