Timequake

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

4.9/5 (9478 ratings)

Description:Think of Timequake, Kurt Vonnegut's 19th & last novel (he says), as a victory lap. It's a confident final trot 'round the track by one of the greats of postwar American literature. After 40 years of practice, he's got his schtick down cold, & it's a pleasure--if a slightly tame one--to watch him go thru his paces one more time.Timequake's a mongrel; it's half novel, half memoir, the project of a decade's worth of writer's block, a book "that didn't want to be written." The premise is standard-issue Vonnegut: "...a timequake, a sudden glitch in the space-time continuum, made everybody & everything do exactly what they'd done during past decades, for good or ill, a 2nd time..." Simultaneously, the author's favorite tricks are on display--frequent visits with the shopworn science fiction writer Kilgore Trout, a Hitchcockian appearance by the author at the book's end & frequent authorial opining on love, war & society.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
