VONNEGUT ON NOW

NOW’s David Brancaccio interviewed the late literary icon Kurt Vonnegut about his life and the current state of American democracy back in October 2005. With his classic wit, the legendary author of CAT’S CRADLE and SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIVE commented on how American democracy works and delivered some choice words for our parties, our system, and our president. Vonnegut’s book, a collection of nonfiction entitled A MAN WITHOUT A COUNTRY, was a recent bestseller.
