Synopsis:

"His funniest book since Breakfast of Champions... There are nuggets of Vonnegutian wisdom throughout". -- Newsweek"Vonnegut is at his best". -- Atlanta Journal-Constitution"Delightful...fun...plenty of Vonnegut gems for the taking". -- Publishers Weekly"Hilarious...unsettling...exhilarating...This work has been a blessing". -- Valerie Sayers, New York Times Book Review"Timequake is a novel by, and starring, Kurt Vonnegut...What Vonnegut does, and no one can do better, is give a big postmodern hug...You've got to love him". -- Washington Post Book World"Humorous, sardonic...Timequake makes for irresistible reading that's loaded with more important truths than it lets on...Moralizing has never been funnier". -- Chicago Sun-TimesThere's been a timequake. And everyone -- even you -- must live the decade between February 17, 1991 and February 17, 2001 over again. The trick is that we all have to do exactly the same things as we did the first time -- minute by minute, hour by hour, year by year, betting on the wrong horse again, marrying the wrong person again. Why? You'll have to ask the old science fiction writer, Kilgore Trout. This was all his idea."The Mark Twain of our times". -- Atlanta Journal & Constitution"He is a satirist with a heart, a moralist with a whoopee cushion". -- Jay McInerney, New York Times"We are lucky in our time to have a Kurt Vonnegut to prod us, scold us, astonish us, unnerve us, entertain us, and make us laug

Book Description: New York, NY : Putnam, 1997. 8° Halbleinen. Hardcover Near Fine in very good dust jacket Edition: 1st Edition; 1st Printing Cover Art; Maroon paper covered boards have a darker maroon cloth spine with gilt lettering. Text pages are clean & bright. Endpapers are a mottled gray paper. Spine ends & corners of dust jacket have a bit of very light bumping & rubbing. Overall, a nice bright copy. Futurology! Kurt Vonnegut caps his mind-bending career of unconventional attitudes and fiction and lectures with this new book. While written in straightforward English, Timequake is a literary form such as the world has never seen before. It has to be. The three protagonists are the author, and the unappreciated, long-out-of-print science fiction writer Kilgore Trout, who is the author's second self, and a seriously dysfunctional universe. 219 p. Englisch 537g. Bookseller Inventory # 732
