“Yeah I agree. Not all of them have that quirky, awesome, ridiculous feel for them like they belong in the back pages of some obscure magazine. I should have said the ones that read like Kilgore Trout were my favorite. The others were kind of along the lines of Bagombo Snuff Box if you've ever read that. They were solid, but ordinary stories.”

“Simply wonderful. Outrageous characters and plots. I love Vonnegut's work from the 50's and 60's.”
