Kurt Vonnegut died. Probably the most unique American writer of the 20th century. He'll be missed.
My first Vonnegut book was what is considered his darkest - Mother Night. Vonnegut's warning in the introduction to that book is one that has always stuck with me. "We are who we pretend to be, so we must be careful who we pretend to be."
In high school, I read Cat's Cradle. If people ask me about my spirituality and I don't feel like getting into details, I tell them Bokononism. It's as good a description as any.
