Imbued with the innocence, empathy, and kindness that always seemed central to Vonnegut's sensibility
- Lionel Shriver, Financial Times
(Vonnegut) was a splendid preacher of American populism at its most radical...always funny and sometimes refreshingly vulgar

The best of these unpublished pieces are as mad, bitter, hilarious and, in their healthy disrespect not only for 'Get Tough America' but for humanity in general, as startlingly timely as the best of his output

Dark, funny and disturbing
