An Unfortunate Woman: A Journey


An Unfortunate Woman: A Journey is Richard Brautigan's eleventh and final published novel. Written in 1982, it was first published in 1994 in a French translation, Cahier d'un Retour de Troie . The first edition in English did not appear until 2000, when it was produced by St. Martin's Press.
An Unfortunate Woman assumes the form of a traveler's journal, chronicling the protagonist's journey and his oblique ruminations on the suicide of one woman and the death from cancer of a close friend.
