In Watermelon Sugar
iDEATH is a place where the sun shines a different color every day and where people travel to the length of their dreams. Rejecting the violence and hate of the old gang at the Forgotten Works, they lead gentle lives in watermelon sugar. In this book, Richard Brautigan discovers and expresses the mood of the counterculture generation.
Richard Brautigan (1935–1984) was a literary idol of the 1960s and 1970s counterculture era whose works were translated the world over. He wrote eleven novels, ten volumes of poetry, a collection of short stories, and miscellaneous nonfiction pieces.
Bronson Pinchot is an Earphones and Audie Award–winning narrator and Audible’s Narrator of the Year for 2010.

Reviews
“A charming and original work…The parable itself is extremely relevant.”
“Richard Brautigan is joining Hesse, Golding, Salinger, and Vonnegut as a literary magus to the literate young.”
“Delicate, fantastic, and very funny…A highly individual style, a fertile, active inventiveness…It’s cool, joyous, lucid, and pleasant to read.”
