Another sad, moving, funny slice of midwest american weirdness from Richard god rest his weary soul.. Think Coen Brothers meet Woody Allen over a couple of bongs. Basically it's about three brothers who go on the rampage looking for their stolen bowling trophies but it's not really about them at all - it's about Bob and Constance and "the Story of O Game". It's about love and loss.
You must seek out this book and read it and then you will be a better person.

It reminded me of a Coen brothers film in how it explores the absurd reality we often find ourselves in, but it's also tinged with a sprinkle of sadness. The Logan brothers constantly reminded me of criminals from a Coen brothers film like Burn after reading. I don't completely love the conclusion to this, but I did appreciate how Brautigan successfully blended the varying tones and created something compelling. Looking forward to reading more of his stuff.
