This memoir is Ianthe Brautigan’s attempt to make sense of her famous father’s suicide, to come to terms with it, and to try and paint a picture of the man she knew. What emerges from Ianthe Brautigan’s memoir of her father, is an account of a complex, witty, caring man who was torn apart by internal demons, and of a writer who became a hero of the 50s and 60s counter-culture but had to endure watching fame and critical praise fade away.
