The last of the canonical Kurt Vonnegut books, A Man Without a Country spent eight weeks on the New York Times hardcover nonfiction bestseller list, selling over a quarter-million copies This 20th anniversary edition features a new introduction by Lewis Black. For all those who have lived with Vonnegut in their imaginations . . . this is what he is like in person.-USA Today The America I loved still exists, if not in the White House, the Supreme Court, the Senate, the House of Representatives, or the media. The America I loved still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.-Kurt Vonnegut, from A Man Without a Country The closest Kurt Vonnegut ever came to writing his autobiography, A Man Without a Country is part memoir, part social and political commentary, and part riveting personal conversation with an old friend. An undeniably moving and unique return of the literary grandmaster to form. A Man Without a Country features Vonnegut's coming of age, his war experiences, his life as an artist, and the hilariously funny and razor-sharp way of understanding things that helped him get through it all. Some Vonnegut jewels in A Man without a Country
- If I die--God forbid--I would like to go to heaven to ask somebody in charge up there, 'Hey, what was the good news and what was the bad news?
- To practice any art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow. So do it.
- I asked former Yankees pitcher Jim Bouton what he thought of our great victory over Iraq and he said, 'Mohammed Ali versus Mr. Rogers.'
- And finally, on the subject of the condition of the soul of America today: What has happened to us?
