Cat's Cradle: A Novel

?A free-wheeling vehicle . . . an unforgettable ride!??The New York Times Cat?s Cradle is Kurt Vonnegut?s satirical commentary on modern man and his madness. An apocalyptic tale of this planet?s ultimate fate, it features a midget as the protagonist, a complete, original theology created by a calypso singer, and a vision of the future that is at once blackly fatalistic and hilariously funny. A book that left an indelible mark on an entire generation of readers, Cat?s Cradle is one of the twentieth century?s most important works?and Vonnegut at his very best. ?[Vonnegut is] an unimitative and inimitable social satirist.??Harper?s Magazine ?Our finest black-humorist . . . We laugh in self-defense.??Atlantic Monthly
