Kurt Vonnegut: The Misunderstood Writer

Описание: The 20th century saw many American authors leave their mark on the world of American literature. One such author to succeed in leaving such a mark was Kurt Vonnegut. Kurt Vonnegut is a hard writer to pin down with a career spanning over five decades. He was prolific throughout his illustrious career, writing books that attempted to dissect and understand the world he’d grown up in and his life.

As a writer, Vonnegut often approached his subject matter with satire and science fiction twists, making his work unique and sometimes challenging to decipher. Three general concepts guided much of his work: social equality, pacifism, and common decency. These were themes that worked for the audience of the time. He was a writer who made villains of sexuality, violence, war, and technology. Overshadowed by his most popular book, Slaughterhouse-Five, Kurt Vonnegut's interesting life helps make sense of his exciting work throughout his career. This is the story of the misunderstood writer.
