Description
Set in a small Oregon town during the 1940s, this poignant novel follows a young narrator whose quiet, isolated world is irrevocably altered by a tragic shooting accident. Through spare, dreamlike prose and vividly observed moments, the story explores guilt, grief, memory, and the fragile ways people try to make sense of loss. Blending tenderness with Brautigan’s characteristic surrealism and understated wit, it offers a haunting meditation on childhood, chance, and the enduring weight of the past.
