Content descriptions
| General Note: | "A Delta book." "A fourth-generation German-American now living in easy circumstances on Cape Cod (and smoking too much), who, as an American infantry scout hors de combat, as a prisoner of war, witnessed the fire-bombing of Dresden, Germany, "The Florence of the Elbe," a long time ago, and survived to tell the tale. This is a novel somewhat in the telegraphic schizophrenic manner of tales of the planet Tralfamadore, where the flying saucers come from. Peace." |

Kurt Vonnegutâs black humor, satiric voice, and incomparable imagination first captured Americaâs attention in The Sirens of Titan in 1959 and established him as âa true artistâ (The New York Times) with Catâs Cradle in 1963. He was, as Graham Greene declared, âone of the best living American writers.â Mr. Vonnegut passed away in April 2007.
