Kurt Vonnegut 1922-2007

Kurt Vonnegut died tonight in Manhattan. I hope he was wrong about Heaven.

I feel like all the greats are dying, and us kids are going to have to invent the future on our own. I worry that we won't do it very well.

Sad news indeed. Remember going to see him at the Auditorium in '94 or '95? His dissection of great stories still cracks me up. Indianapolis had been holding a year of Vonnegut; readings, presentations, etc. They're planning on continuing with the events. -Eller

Yep, I remember. I still get laughs telling people about his take on Hamlet. I'm embarrassed to say that I only know Vonnegut through interviews and seeing him speak; I've never actually read him. Time to start.
