casey Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 my favorite is cat's cradle in reality i'd have to narrow it down to a top 5and even then it would be difficult Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud87 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Slaughterhouse 5 is the best intro to Vonnegut book, or Welcome To The Monkey House (since it's short stories). You really should read as much as possible by him though. Everything he ever wrote was amazing in it's own way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stranaspank Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Decided today I was going to get a tattoo of "so it goes". Love Vonnegut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseydave77 Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 where did you get that print !? http://www.vonnegut.com/art.asp my wife got it for me, it was one of the cheapest on the site at the time. i think it was less than anything that is there now. Is it actually signed by Vonnegut from prior to his death? I love the Kilgore Trout tombstone as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecream Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 i would hope so those prices are insane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
withengineheart Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 i would hope so those prices are insane 450 dollars for a print of a butt hole. Definitely raises the 'what is art' question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathroommonkey Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 http://www.vonnegut.com/art.asp my wife got it for me, it was one of the cheapest on the site at the time. i think it was less than anything that is there now. Is it actually signed by Vonnegut from prior to his death? I love the Kilgore Trout tombstone as well. almost positive these are all signed by Vonnegut, mine is. pretty sure the prices have gone up in the past few years also.

icecream Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 those are super cool but at that point i could find one of his autographed books for a fraction of the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tylerrr Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Slaughter House 5 is great to start with. Sirens of Titan is also just as good. I read Galapagos as well, it was good just not AS good. You should definitely read as much of him as you can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecream Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I think this is the first vonnegut print i've liked and it's cheap ! I just wasn't feeling the doyle ones although I liked the idea http://img2.etsystatic.com/il_fullxfull.332453150.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcm1610 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Cormac McCarthy? I've read through most of his stuff but never got the Border Trilogy, even though every other book mentions those 3 in their bit about the author. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Blood Meridian is too good. I say its too good because he wrote too well about people being the fucking worst. Its kinda scary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplesaurusrex Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I loved Welcome to the Monkey House. I ended up getting a tattoo with the quote at the end of EPICAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
