Über den Autor und weitere Mitwirkende

Born in 1922 in Indianapolis, Indiana, KURT VONNEGUT was one of the few grandmasters of modern American letters. Called by the New York Times “the counterculture’s novelist,” his works guided a generation through the miasma of war and greed that was life in the U.S. in second half of the 20th century. After a stints as a soldier, anthropology PhD candidate, technical writer for General Electric, and salesman at a Saab dealership, Vonnegut rose to prominence with the publication of Cat’s Cradle in 1963. Several modern classics, including Slaughterhouse-Five, soon followed. Never quite embraced by the stodgier arbiters of literary taste, Vonnegut was nonetheless beloved by millions of readers throughout the world. “Given who and what I am,” he once said, “it has been presumptuous of me to write so well.” Kurt Vonnegut died in New York in 2007.

Es ist ein kurzes Büchlein, aber eins randvoll mit Vonneguts bissigem, scharfsinnigen Humor.In kurzen Interviews mit Berühmtheiten aus dem Jenseits hält uns Vonnegut unsere oft bigotte Natur vor. Doch man sollte sich für die kurzen Interviews Zeit nehmen und die Pointen auf sich wirken lassen.Das Büchlein mag kein Klassiker sein alla Slaughterhouse-Five, aber es ist auf jeden Fall lesenswert!Abgerundet wird das Ganze durch ein knappes, aber geniales Vorwort von Neil Gaiman, das zu Vonneguts Interviews passt wie die sprichwörtliche Faust aufs Auge.

You should know, Vonnegut was atheist. So the scenery is part of the plot. Wise and understanding, utterly comic and unbearable sad, at the end always consoling. There is no one like him.

This book is a must for all Vonnegut fans, as the author demonstrates his usual wit and wisdom in a series of "interviews" with the famous and the dead. As usual, Vonnegut tweaks society for its failings while exhalting the human race for its loyalty and ability to love. These stories originated as a series of radio spots which Vonnegut did for New York City public radio station WNYC. The only complaint is that each piece is so short. Most will take about one minute to read, leaving the reader always wanting more. Vonnegut could have easily built this into a novel-length work. The idea is a great one, and it is the perfect canvas for him to explore issues and characters from all historical periods. However, one must be thankful for anything from this veteran author, and "God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian" is well worth the purchase price. It is one of the most enjoyable short fictions in many years.

For those of you who are Vonnegut fanatics, this is a book that you must have, but on the same token you may be slightly disappointed. An interesting and funny plot, placing Kurt Vonnegut in the hands of Dr. Kevorkian, but that may be one of the few humorous antics of the book.Vonnegut's visits with the other side are short, often leaving the reader wanting to know just a little bit more. He uses an interesting approach, interviewing a wide variety of people...from famous thinkers to the typical Joe, reminding us that we much too often overlook the significance of every life.Vonnegut's liberal-self shines through when he jokes around about the death penalty and the Texas facility that him and Jack must evacuate several times so that it may be put to "full" use. And for history buffs, his interview with Eugene V. Debs will keep you laughing. :)This work is a short and fast read, which will start the reader off laughing. (The introduction is typical Vonnegut satire.) Not to be compared (by any means) to his major works such as Cat's Cradle, Slaughterhouse Five, or Mother Night, but nonetheless worth the read.

Old Kurt has done it again...Further pushing back the walls of reality to make room for his outlandish yet all too believable fiction. In "God Bless You, Dr Kevorkian" Vonnegut presents written transcripts from the post-mortem interviews he's conducted with dead celebrities(both well known and obscure) through controlled near death experiences courtesy of Dr. Jack Kevorkian. It is through these fictional interviews that Vonnegut gives his take on life, death, and the human experience and ends up at his familiar refrain: Life may be meaningless--but at least it's beautiful. This is vintage Vonnegut--A gospel of the laughable irony of human existence. This book was a joy to read.

You know how a Vonnegut novel can make a huge impact on your life? Well, this one won't. It is, however, a pretty good--not great--book. If you are a huge Vonnegut fan, you must own this. If you are just starting with Vonnegut, read some of his better works first. Try "Galapagos": it's his best. The introduction--by Vonnegut himself--is classic Vonnegut; it makes the book worth the price.

You know why I'm giving this book a '4'? Because it's not a masterpiece, but it IS unique and it stuck with me more than any book I've read in the past couple of years. Yes it's short book, but I have come to realize that not all great stories need to be long, drawn-out novels filled with plot twists and dozens of interesting characters. Vonnegut gets quickly to the point here. He usually does. I think that's one of his greatest strengths as an author. And what a great concept! It is collection of interviews with people who have passed away. As the story goes, Vonnegut has worked a deal with Jack Kevorkian whereby he is able to go to the pearly gates, interview someone, and then come back before it's too late. The resulting interviews with both famous and non-famous people are interesting, funny, sad, and, most of all, thought provoking. So if you want a quick read that gives you all of those emotions, get it.

Thank you Mr. Vonnegut for doing what 100 mg of Prozac a day cannot do. What an inspiration for holding on to one's ideals! Don't read it in the book store. The money goes to a good cause. If I had money I would buy this book for every depressed English-speaking person in the world; that is, most of us. Also, it is a good place to keep a stirring quote by Eugene V. Debs at hand.
