This was Brautigan's fifth novel, a parody of Western and Gothic novels, a story of a mysterious cowboy on the rad to a dark place. As in earlier novels, Brautigan played with the idea that imagination has borh good and bad ramifications, turning it into a monster with the power to turn objects and thoughts into whatever amused it. A fine copy of a colletible Brautigan work
