Kurt Vonnegutâs black humor, satiric voice, and incomparable imagination first captured Americaâs attention in The Sirens of Titan in 1959 and established him as âa true artistâ (The New York Times) with Catâs Cradle in 1963. He was, as Graham Greene declared, âone of the best living American writers.â Mr. Vonnegut passed away in April 2007.
