NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ā€¢ ā€œFor all those who have lived with Vonnegut in their imaginations . . . this is what he is like in person.ā€ā€“USA Today In a volume that is penetrating, introspective, incisive, and laugh-out-loud funny, one of the great men of letters of this ageā€“or any ageā€“holds forth on life, art, sex, politics, and the state of Americaā€™s soul. From his coming of age in America, to his formative war experiences, to his life as an artist, this is Vonnegut doing what he does best: Being himself. Whimsically illustrated by the author, A Man Without a Country is intimate, tender, and brimming with the scope of Kurt Vonnegutā€™s passions. Praise for A Man Without a Country ā€œ[This] may be as close as Vonnegut ever comes to a memoir.ā€ā€“Los Angeles Times ā€œLike [that of] his literary ancestor Mark Twain, [Kurt Vonnegutā€™s] crankiness is good-humored and sharp-witted. . . . [Reading A Man Without a Country is] like sitting down on the couch for a long chat with an old friend.ā€ā€“The New York Times Book Review ā€œFilled with [Vonnegutā€™s] usual contradictory mix of joy and sorrow, hope and despair, humor and gravity.ā€ā€“Chicago Tribune ā€œFans will linger on every word . . . as once again [Vonnegut] captures the complexity of the human condition with stunning calligraphic simplicity.ā€ā€“The Australian ā€œThank God, Kurt Vonnegut has broken his promise that he will never write another book. In this wondrous assemblage of mini-memoirs, we discover his familyā€™s legacy and his obstinate, unfashionable humanism.ā€ā€“Studs Terkel
