In Watermelon Sugar
by Brautigan, Richard
In Watermelon Sugar is a novella written by Richard Brautigan published in 1968. It is a tale of a commune organized around a central gathering house which is named "i". In this environment, many things are made of watermelon sugar — the inhabitants also use pine wood and stone for building material. The landscape of the novel is always changing. Each day has a different colored sun which creates different colored watermelons, and the central building also changes frequently.
