Thread Name: Obit: Farewell, Kurt Vonnegut
Subject: RE: Obit: Farewell, Kurt Vonnegut
When I was very young and determined to read all the science fiction books in the Needham Public Library I happened upon Player Piano which was a real mind stretcher because while it was very readable it was thoroughly unconventional.

I admire Kurt Vonnegut the man, what he stood for, what he would not stand for, and for those he admired and to some extent resembled(Mark Twain).

I was also moved by his son Mark's book Eden Express.

And So It Goes
