    " 3 half hour interviews spanning 3 decades! It is great if you love Vonnegut, but it is way too short to be life changing! Totally worth the time to hear him reflect on his work over the years as well as the current state of affairs in the world. "

Kurt Vonnegut (1922–2007) was a master of contemporary American literature. His black humor, satiric voice, and incomparable imagination first captured America’s attention in The Sirens of Titan in 1959 and established him as “a true artist” with Cat’s Cradle in 1963.
