About This Book
So when my own time comes to join the choir invisible or whatever, God
forbid, I hope someone will say 'He's up in Heaven now.' Who really
knows? I could have dreamed all this.
God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian includes all of Kurt Vonnegut's intrepid
investigative reporting from the afterlife, from when he was sent there
in 1998 by local NPR affiliate WNYC to interview, among others, Sir
Isaac Newton, Clarence Darrow, James Earl Ray, Eugene Debs, John Brown,
Adolf Hitler, William Shakespeare, and Kilgore Trout.
What began as a series of ninety-second radio interludes evolved into
this provocative collection of musings about who and what we live for,
and how much it all matters in the end. From the original portrait by
his friend Jules Feiffer that graces the cover, to the last word of the
last entry, God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian is a joy forever.
Kurt Vonnegut (1922?2007) was among the few grandmasters of contemporary
American letters, one without whom the very term American literature
would mean much less than it does. His books endure as defiant?and
charming?embodiments of the heights to which the human imagination will
go in search of essential rights and freedoms. Vonnegut's books from
Seven Stories Press include the national hardcover and paperback
bestseller, A Man Without a Country; God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian; and,
with Lee Stringer, Like Shaking Hands with God: A Conversation About
Writing.
