I didn't know much about Vonnegut, having only read Cat's Cradle previously (and, I think in highschool, at that (boy, I'm old)), so took me a while to realize the autobiographical bits were truly autobiographical. Kinda wish it were pure memoir+musings, but the weaving in of fiction was a fun device, I suppose.

i'll tell you what, tho.. seems like he has a rep for being curmudgeonly, or something? i dunno, I get a lot of heart from this guy. just another disappointed sensitive soul seeking light.
