Kurt Vonnegut is dead. The man who wrote, "Breakfast of Champions", "Player Piano", "Cat's Cradle", "Slaughterhouse-Five" and "God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater" was one of my favorite authors. His prose, vision and creativity were inspiration not only for me to write an occasional story here and there, but also as an awakening of the abstract, the pessimistic and the sardonic in my mind.
All my heroes, literary and musical, are slowly fading to black. James Brown in December and now Kurt Vonnegut in April. Fittingly, it's a dark rainy day in New York City.
