Sognando Babilonia

The setting feels so whimsical yet grounded — I wonder if it’s based on any real city or pure imagination. How did Brautigan's personal experiences shape this unique world?

The humor keeps things light, but there’s this undercurrent of existential questioning. Did others sense that contrast, or was it just me feeling a bit unsettled?

His quirky, poetic prose makes the narrative feel airy yet profound. I wonder whether this style was a conscious choice to evoke a specific feeling or came naturally.
