Kurt Vonnegut's America - and the rest of the universe, too

Vonnegut's writing is instantly recognisable but impossible to imitate. His anti-war attitude has its roots in personal experiences during and immediately after WWII, and he expands his humanism to space in an attempt to deal with what he witnessed in Dresden. He also saw early on what the human race is doing to the planet, and said "We could have saved the world but were too damned cheap and lazy". To mark the twentieth anniversary of his death (So it goes), we'll have a look at the life, work, legacy and philosophy of this great moral thinker and funniest guy around. Peace.
