unpublished prose by richard brautigan
From the very beginnings of his career, before leaving Eugene, Oregon, to seek fame and fortune, Richard Brautigan worked in inexpensive student notebooks. Much of this work remains unpublished and is housed in the Brautigan Archive at the Bancroft Library at UC Berkeley. Brautigan regarded this work as early drafts of potential fiction. He didn't intend them to be read as personal journals and memoir but in fact that is what they are. I've read all of Brautigan's prose. The unpublished pieces used in this biography are cited below:
