NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
“[This] may be as close as Vonnegut ever comes to a memoir.”
– Los Angeles Times
“Like [that of] his literary ancestor Mark Twain, [Kurt Vonnegut’s] crankiness is good-humored and sharp-witted. . . . [Reading A Man Without a Country is] like sitting down on the couch for a long chat with an old friend.”
–The New York Times Book Review
In a volume that is penetrating, introspective, incisive, and laugh-out-loud funny, one of the great men of letters of this age–or any age–holds forth on life, art, sex, politics, and the state of America’s soul. From his coming of age in America, to his formative war experiences, to his life as an artist, this is Vonnegut doing what he does best: Being himself. Whimsically illustrated by the author, A Man Without a Country is intimate, tender, and brimming with the scope of Kurt Vonnegut’s passions.
“For all those who have lived with Vonnegut in their imaginations . . . this is what he is like in person.”
– USA Today
“Filled with [Vonnegut’s] usual contradictory mix of joy and sorrow, hope and despair, humor and gravity.”
– Chicago Tribune
“Fans will linger on every word . . . as once again [Vonnegut] captures the complexity of the human condition with stunning calligraphic simplicity.”
– The Australian
“Thank God, Kurt Vonnegut has broken his promise that he will never write another book. In this wondrous assemblage of mini-memoirs, we discover his family’s legacy and his obstinate, unfashionable humanism.”
–Studs Terkel

When you get out of bed each morning, with the roosters crowing, wouldn’t you like to say. “As long as there is a lower class, I am in it. As long as there is a criminal element, I am of it. As long as there is a soul in prison, I am not free.”
评分Once you open K.V's books, you just cannot put them down. Brilliant!
评分a former comedian turned grumpy because of Bush and our environmental policy? It probably better start from his novels instead of essays, which contain a lot of altitude and clever wording but not much of insights. Must be a lively character in person tho
评分随便从哪页读起都行,每页都会幽上一默,轻松但却不失批判。If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.
评分如果每一个人都能做真实自己,敢于表达自我,这个世界就没有现在那么糟糕吧。
《没有国家的人》这本书是冯内古特自1997年的第十四部小说问世之后,出版的第一部非虚构性作品,可以称之为随笔或评论。 “他告诉我在这个国家的奴隶制时代,奴隶主自杀的比例比奴隶的高多了。他说他认为这是因为奴隶懂得怎么克服绝望心理,这是他们的主人所不具备的。他可以...
评分被这本书所吸引是因为书名,以及冯内古特。 大学时基本上都在看美国小说,有段时间连续看了几本畅销小说,让人的触觉麻木,思维固化。而冯内古特的《五号屠场》的出现则是让人眼睛一亮,因为小说风格实在太与众不同了。与普通畅销小说的叙事技巧不同,《五号屠场》将...
评分很多人对知识分子也许缺乏好感,这大概是受了影视作品的毒害,在描述中,知识分子总是些孱弱而乏味的中年人模样,或郁郁寡欢,或苦大仇深,看别人的眼神总像是人家欠着他几千块没还,偶尔讲一个笑话,也冷得使人连打寒颤。这样的知识分子,说实话,真不怎么可爱。如果去除学识...
