gems of knowledge

...


it is a known fact that Mr. Richard G. Brautigan wrote Trout Fishing in America while vacationing in Idaho in the year of 1961 (his wife, whose name is lost for me, was also there and so was their daughter, Ianthe).

it is also a known fact that the same year, we're talking 1961 here, a Mr. Ernest Hemingway committed suicide in Idaho.

Mr. Brautigan would also commit suicide but not in Idaho (Montana) and not in 1961 (1984).
