Richard Brautigan. Loading Mercury With a Pitchfork. 1976. First edition.
Brautigan's ninth poetry collection, gathering 127 poems that balance absurdist humor, melancholy, and startling clarity. Written during the later years of his career, the volume demonstrates the deceptively simple voice that made Brautigan one of the most distinctive literary figures of the American counterculture.
Condition: Very good.
