A brief, dreamlike sequence of vignettes centered on an intimate relationship, moving between quiet domestic moments and gently surreal imagery, and culminating in a characteristic Brautigan blend of tenderness, humor, and understated melancholy. Produced in a strictly limited edition of 50 copies, not issued for public sale and largely distributed privately. A scarce Bancroft Library Press production, seldom encountered on the market, particularly with erratum slip and in this uncut state.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Buzz Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52696348426519,"sku":null,"price":1200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0846\/0887\/6823\/files\/992F50E8-5DED-4BC7-A753-67C3218E4B6A.jpg?v=1776510612","url":"https:\/\/buzzbookstore.com\/de\/products\/brautigan-richard-would-you-like-to-saddle-up-a-couple-of-goldfish-and-swim-to-alaska-bancroft-1995","provider":"Buzz Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
