Kurt Vonnegut

Why is it that so many Vonnegut remembrances describe the same experience?

If you read Kurt Vonnegut when you were young — read all there was of him, book after book as fast as you could the way so many of us did…

That includes Peter Sagal, whose comments I liked better than those in the Times.

It was the same for me. Why is that?

‘kin right. I had exactly the same experience. I still have the dog-eared editions too. I used Slaughter-house 5 in class but I often couldn’t read from it because it always reduces me to tears.
