Davis (Assistant Professor of English at Penn State) explores the humanistic angle of the fiction of celebrated 60's and 70's author Kurt Vonnegut. Vonnegut has never shied away from the controversial, and even in the earliest of these offerings, his use of imaginative futuristic settings and satire to air his concerns about war, technology, the ecology, and our growing and aging population, to name just a few themes, is adept enough to make his cautionary tales still sting. More Nor'easterner stuff, some funny stuff, more quotes (this is full of Vonnegut and a dash of Clockwork Orange), and a few pictures of girls. |
