Description
Kurt Vonnegut is a cult figure in twentieth-century literature. An American writer, satirist, journalist, and artist—through whose eyes almost the entire twentieth century passed. Author of the world-famous novels “Cat’s Cradle” and “Slaughterhouse-Five.”
In Vonnegut’s creative style, biting satire, philosophy, science fiction, grotesque imagery, and black humor are combined. A small island in the Galapagos archipelago becomes a refuge for people who miraculously survived a worldwide catastrophe. Only a few survived—and, as if on purpose, not the best representatives of humanity…
One of Kurt Vonnegut’s most peculiar and mysterious novels, in which he plays not only with the “mythology of art” of the twentieth century, but also with the archetypes of “war fiction” and motifs from ancient Greek mythology. The autobiography of the fictional artist Rabo Karabekyan, whose career collapsed because of bad paint, and the story of the mysterious Zircea Berman, who tries to change not only his life but also his views on art and his place in it, serve as a framing device for a parable that reinterprets the well-known story of the creator, his Muse, and the Search for Inspiration.
