Player Piano by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. (1997, Paperback, Reissue)

Vonnegut's first novel, and first look at the future, and his best look at the future.

A dystopian prophetic novel, in the vein of We, 1984, Brave New World, etc.
And just as chilling and prophetic as Brave New World and 1984... and as we near 2010, we see this novel becoming truer and truer - a scary thing.

A terrific debut novel by Kurt Vonnegut Jr., one to be read again and again and treasured.

I'm about half-way through this book, and I like it so far. It's a thought provoking read. Interestingly enough, the author's predictions of the issues we would have to deal with post WWII, are pretty accurate, although he's taken them a little further than reality. The extreeme view of the future really puts issues that we really need to consider right out in the open. Enjoy the read!
