A free-wheeling vehicle . . . an unforgettable ride!-- The New York Times Cats Cradle is Kurt Vonneguts satirical commentary on modern man and his madness. An apocalyptic tale of this planets ultimate fate, it features a midget as the protagonist, a complete, original theology created by a calypso singer, and a vision of the future that is at once blackly fatalistic and hilariously funny. A book that left an indelible mark on an entire generation of readers, Cats Cradle is one of the twentieth centurys most important works--and Vonnegut at his very best. [Vonnegut is] an unimitative and inimitable social satirist.-- Harpers Magazine Our finest black-humorist . . . We laugh in self-defense.-- Atlantic Monthly
