NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
“[This] may be as close as Vonnegut ever comes to a memoir.”
– Los Angeles Times
“Like [that of] his literary ancestor Mark Twain, [Kurt Vonnegut’s] crankiness is good-humored and sharp-witted. . . . [Reading A Man Without a Country is] like sitting down on the couch for a long chat with an old friend.”
–The New York Times Book Review
In a volume that is penetrating, introspective, incisive, and laugh-out-loud funny, one of the great men of letters of this age–or any age–holds forth on life, art, sex, politics, and the state of America’s soul. From his coming of age in America, to his formative war experiences, to his life as an artist, this is Vonnegut doing what he does best: Being himself. Whimsically illustrated by the author, A Man Without a Country is intimate, tender, and brimming with the scope of Kurt Vonnegut’s passions.
“For all those who have lived with Vonnegut in their imaginations . . . this is what he is like in person.”
– USA Today
“Filled with [Vonnegut’s] usual contradictory mix of joy and sorrow, hope and despair, humor and gravity.”
– Chicago Tribune
“Fans will linger on every word . . . as once again [Vonnegut] captures the complexity of the human condition with stunning calligraphic simplicity.”
– The Australian
“Thank God, Kurt Vonnegut has broken his promise that he will never write another book. In this wondrous assemblage of mini-memoirs, we discover his family’s legacy and his obstinate, unfashionable humanism.”
–Studs Terkel

睡前把剩的半本《沒有國傢的人》看完瞭,停也停不下來,怎麼晚上消化力那麼強呢,大概因為躺床上的專注,外麵淒風苦雨,屋子裏卻暖暖,我帶著一種幸災樂禍+小富即安的滿足感,卻又沒得讀瞭,趕緊訂瞭本《冠軍早餐》。 Mr.馮就是個徹頭徹尾的老憤青啊,這本可以像羅蘭·巴特那樣...
評分Kurt Vonnegut’s master’s thesis in anthropology was rejected by the University of Chicago. “It was rejected because it was so simple and looked like too much fun,” Vonnegut writes. “One must not be too playful.” This excerpt from PALM SUNDAY, is the g...
評分 評分不可否認馮內古特仍不愧是一位語言大師,他那文字當中透露齣的靈氣和機智並沒有因為他的年齡而褪色 比如在這本書的開頭,他寫到: http://www.sevenstories.com/html/custom/images/Mafia.jpg 善 戰勝不瞭 惡 ...
評分庫爾特.馮內古特是個八十四歲的老頭子,應該也是美國稱為“垮掉的一代”(指五十年代)的年輕人,比他大三歲的塞林格就比較符閤垮掉的特點,不然《麥田守望者》裏的霍爾頓不會如此惶惶不可終日地暴走。 馮內古特本來已經封筆瞭,在1997他寫完最後的一本長篇小說《時震》後,結...

評分When you get out of bed each morning, with the roosters crowing, wouldn’t you like to say. “As long as there is a lower class, I am in it. As long as there is a criminal element, I am of it. As long as there is a soul in prison, I am not free.”
評分Once you open K.V's books, you just cannot put them down. Brilliant!
