Kurt Vonnegut
Kurt Vonnegut is dead, but he left us a rich treasure in his books. If you haven't read Slaughterhouse-Five, Cat’s Cradle or God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater -- or haven't read them for awhile -- perhaps now would be a good time.
Vonnegut, along with Joseph Heller, was one of the great moral voices for RSR's generation. I don't think we could of made sense of those times without the benefit of the dark, but very human, comedy he gave us through his writing.
