This collectible volume introduces Vonnegut's legion of fans to an entirely new side of his irrepressible creative personality - his work as a gifted graphic artist.
Readers around the world know Kurt Vonnegut as the iconic author of books such as Slaughterhouse-Five and Cat's Cradle. Far fewer fans know that Vonnegut was also a talented graphic artist who drew as prodigiously as he wrote.
Kurt Vonnegut Drawings brings together the finest examples of Vonnegut's funny, strange, and moving drawings in one beautifully designed volume. With a hint of cubism, mixed with a Paul Klee gift for caricature, a Calder-like ability to balance color and line, and more than a touch of sixties psychedelic sensibility, Vonnegut's aesthetic is as idiosyncratic and defiant of tradition as his books. For Vonnegut, making art was a joyful activity; his delight is evident in the work featured here.
Featuring 150 illustrations, some never before published, Kurt Vonnegut Drawings alsoincludes an introduction by Vonnegut's daughter, Nanette, who shares an intimate remembrance of her father, and an essay by Peter Reed, a scholar and Vonnegut's longtime friend.
