Slapstick or Lonesome No More!: A Novel

<b>“Some of the best and most moving Vonnegut.”—<i>San Francisco Chronicle</i></b><br><br><i>Slapstick</i> presents an apocalyptic vision as seen through the eyes of the current King of Manhattan (and last President of the United States), a wickedly irreverent look at the all-too-possible results of today’s follies. But even the end of life-as-we-know-it is transformed by Kurt Vonnegut’s pen into hilarious farce—a final slapstick that may be the Almighty’s joke on us all.<br><br><b>“Both funny and sad . . . just about perfect.”—<i>Los Angeles Times</i></b><br>  <br><b> “Imaginative and hilarious . . . a brilliant vision of our wrecked, wacked-out future.”—<i>Hartford Courant</i></b>
