Today’s favorite author: Kurt Vonnegut.
What can I say about this giant of satire, humanism, and weird science fiction? Always entertaining with a deeper message that’s both cynical and hopeful.
Slaughterhouse Five is probably banned in most school libraries, but should be required reading.
I recently finished reading Player Piano, written in 1952, but foretells a world where machines do the thinking. Written before the Korean War, but still incredibly current!
Newbies MUST read Slaughterhouse Five or Cat’s Cradle.
Have at it!
