Synopsis
Kurt Vonnegut's first new book in nearly 10 years is a collection of the essays he has published during that time, illustrated with his inimitable--and often hilarious--line drawings. Vonnegut writes on such topics as death, literature, the state of the American soul, the necessity for making art, and, of course, the administration of George W. Bush. The book's title comes from his often professed sense of shame at the American presence in Iraq. Many of these pieces were published in the magazine In These Times.

Industry Reviews
"At times, he may slide toward Andy Rooneyesque or Grandpa Simpsonesque crotchetiness, but mostly, like his literary ancestor Mark Twain, his crankiness is good-humored and sharp-witted, and aimed at well-defended soft spots of hypocrisy and arrogance."

    This slim collection by Kurt Vonnegut Jr., A dozen short essays, a poem, and an author's note make up this brief work. Non-fiction, these essays range in topics from the problems with modern technology, to the differences between men and women. Most prevalent however, are politics, and issues of American society. Most were written during the past five years for the magazine In These Times. Each essay is illustrated with Vonnegut's own original art work.
    In January 2007, Vonnegut indicated that he intended this to be his final work. Vonnegut died at the age of 84 on April 11, 2007, in Manhattan, New York after a fall at his Manhattan home several weeks prior. This was his last work. No matter how humorous or off the wall what he writes appears to be, he is very serious, or he is in this case. But in any case The essays are classic Vonnegut.

    Vonnegut has been called the Mark Twain of our time, in this volume one can see why. It's a book that is brutally honest in its hopelessness, though it is also very funny. In it, he wrote this epitaph for the Earth: "The good Earth – we could have saved it, but we were too damn cheap and lazy."

    A Man Without a Country mourns the death of what we could have been but never tried become.
    Everyone should read this book!
