Book Reviews of Trout Fishing in America

Book Review: A Book of Randomness That Has a Central Theme
Summary: 5 Stars

I love Richard Brautigan's adventurous "Trout Fishing in America." Never before have I seen so many unique and interesting lines in short a short span of pages. Never before, have I been able to pick up a book and go to any old random page in the book and be entertained without a care of order or what the previous chapters talk about. It is prose that takes you into the randomness of the United States, and occasionally Mexico. It is truly a book of poetry disguised as a novel.

His angle on San Francisco, New York city in the Summer, and small and often obscure areas of the US is fun, intriguing, and playful to read.

What I hate is how I really cannot explain why it's such a remarkable work of art. I just love how Brautigan writes from his fun, adventurous spirit, wit and the very realms of his spontaneous genious.
