Vonnegut is the author whose work I admire most in this world. His words never fail to resonate and bring a smile to my face. If I could have a coffee with any person who has ever existed, my choice would be Kurt.

"The good Earth - we could have saved it, but we were too damn cheap and lazy."
I devoured this one on one train ride and haven't been so simultaneously uplifted and depressed in a while

This is a weird book. It's not quite a memoir and not quite a collection of essays, but a quasi-reflection of the world as Vonnegut saw it before he died. It's interesting to see how his political positions and predictions stand over a decade later. In this, I would say Vonnegut was not exactly spot on. That being said, it is worth mentioning that I am a big Vonnegut fan, despite disagreeing with him, and it was refreshing to hear his voice again. This is a good book, but only for those who are interested in it's author.
