a paperback Player Piano shelved
on a wall in a second hand store.
a weathered copy of Slapstick that
I've read three times, maybe four.
three times...maybe four.

your writings have altered me sir,
in the most subtle and grandiose ways.
Deadeye Dick makes me laugh out loud
remembering back to a favorite phrase.

your stories have helped me grow
by providing me a mental nest.
God bless you Mr. Vonnegut,
you're a cut above the rest.

I started my life as a baby, but Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.’s writing forced me to grow. It educated me and inspires me. For the listed religion on my dog-tags, was Bokononist. Kurt I shed a tear—ok many tears—for your suffering and the loss. Your memory will live on in all of your friends, family, and readers.

Very few writers held my attention like Kurt did. Once you have started one of his books, you don't stop until you have finished it. Once you read one of his books, you will not be satisfied until you have read them all.....What a mind.....

"I was the victim of a series of accidents, as are we all." These are some of the words I have lived by, since I first read 'Sirens...' m ore than 30 years ago. Thanks for giving so many of us the framework for navigating through this dimension. Barry Everett

I had the good fortune to hear Mr. Vonnegut speak at my college in the 70's. Although he was expecting to speak to a small English Lit class and not a full auditorium, he was gracious and shared his wit and unique perspective with some 100 struggling English majors in New Jersey. His books continue to astound me.
