In Richard Brautigan's work, a werewolf somehow finds himself in a beautiful, enchanting forest. His character is vibrant yet vulnerable, showcasing a contrast between his fearsome nature and the innocence he displays at the carnival.
As the werewolf experiences the carnival atmosphere, he is particularly moved by the Ferris wheel, causing him to cry. His tears, described as electric green and red, highlight his deep emotional response and human-like feelings, enhancing his tragic beauty and complexity.
