I've just discovered this little announcement on this Wiki page "It was announced that Kurt Vonnegut's 1959 novel The Sirens of Titan would be made into a television series and would be adapted by Dan Harmon and Evan Katz." It turns out this was announced several years ago...

Ive Read Cats Cradle , Slaughterhouse 5 .Breakfast of Champions . . The first two had elements of science fiction and all three definit fit into the category of satire.I found them to be enjoyable . A very limited selection and likely not representative of his entire body of works of...

I cannot remember why I suddenly decided to read Slaughterhouse Five, I think I might have seen an article written about it, or perhaps the bombing of Dresden during World War II that mentioned it. Whatever it might have been it was enough to capture my interest and I picked it up. I had...

Well, this is a blow! Novelist Kurt Vonnegut dies at age 84 - Yahoo! News The story came in 14 minutes ago, apparently, via AP, and is titled "Novelist Kurt Vonnegut dies at age 84", by Christian Salazar. The article itself is quite long (as such things on writers tend to go). The world...

This place (the Chronicles) and the people here keep amazing me. All of those interesting and fun discussions and such good answers to questions. I have two more queries that I hope to hear your thoughts on. I figured that I might as well combine both queries in one post for convenience. 1) I...

It is about time I read more Vonnegut. I've only read Slaughterhouse Five, and that was over a year ago. Is there any order I should read them in? Which ones are definitely his best?

Me personally...I'm going to compromise and say he's a mad genius
