Armageddon in Retrospect


The first posthumous book by Kurt Vonnegut is about to come out. "Armageddon in Retrospect" is scheduled to be published on April 1st. It's a collection 10 previously unpublished short stories, a letter home to his family at the end of WWII, a personal account of the Dresden firebombing during WWII, and a copy of a speech he wrote but died before being able to deliver (Possibly the speech he was scheduled to give at Butler University on April 27, 2007. His son Mark gave the speech instead.) It's nice to see more writing from this American literary genius come to the surface.
