A Man Without a Country by Kurt Vonnegut

4.0

A Vonnegut biography without the Timequake sheen, a greatest hits compilation of his most astute passages (and drawings), assessments of his own works and an aggressive screed against the then Bush government. The latter sections are definitely the most striking: like George Carlin he appeared to grown a lot angrier at the end of his life, but Kurt is too much of a humanist to completely give up on the human species.

To read this in the current climate, though, is both cathartic and saddening. Sorry Kurt; it didn't get better. In fact, we could have used you right now.
