The first and only YA biography of the great American novelist and humanist comes out on the 100th anniversary of his birth. Kurt Vonnegut author of Slaughterhouse Five Breakfast of Champions Cat's Cradle and many other brilliant novels and short stories is one of our greatest American writers often using science fiction humor and a humanist view of society religion politics and human nature in his writing to show us the absurdity and the loveliness of life on earth. Born in 1922 Vonnegut's life was full of great fortune and great despair: his family was wealthy but lost everything in the market crash of 1929 he was the youngest son in a loving family until his mother fell into a depression and committed suicide he joined the army in WWII with great pride for our country but experienced instead a world of destruction and horror. These and many others were the experiences that made him a writer. But how did he channel the highs and lows of his life into great writing? Dan Wakefield a friend and mentee of Vonnegut's for decades and a fellow Hoosier distills the facts including Kurt's novels essays interviews letters and personal experiences into a beautiful telling of the making of a writer. Using the second person You it is as though Wakefield is a friend walking through Kurt's life alongside him a guide for readers to his extraordinary life. Here is an American life a burgeoning artist's life to inspire anyone who has read Vonnegut's work or who themselves aspire to write.
