==Plot summary==
''The Abortion'' is a genre novel parody〔eNotes.com LLC (2006). (Twentieth-Century Literary Criticism, Richard Brautigan 1935-1984 ). Retrieved October 17, 2006.〕 concerning the librarian of a very unusual California library which accepts books in any form and from anyone who wishes to drop one off at the library—children submit tales told in crayon about their toys; teenagers tell tales of angst and old people drop by with their memoirs—described as "the unwanted, the lyrical and haunted volumes of American writing" in the novel.〔"The Abortion: An Historical Romance 1966" by Joseph Butwin.Saturday Review 12 June 1971. Electronic abstract at (Brautigan Bibliography and Archive ). Retrieved November 4, 2006.〕 Summoned by a silver bell at all hours, submissions are catalogued at the librarian's discretion; not by the Dewey Decimal system, but by placement on whichever magically dust-free shelf would, in the author's judgment, serve best as the book's home.〔AHA Books (1995 - 2005). (Put your Book in the Brautigan Virtual Library ). Retrieved November 4, 2006.〕
One day a woman named Vida appears at the library's door. Although shy and awkward she is described as the most beautiful woman in the world, who American admen "would have made into a national park if they would have gotten their hands on her."〔 Vida falls in love with the reclusive librarian and soon becomes pregnant, necessitating a trip to Tijuana, Mexico to secure an abortion.
