A campus cult-hero, in "Slaughterhouse Five" he created a twentieth-century myth. "Wampeters, Foma & Granfalloons" is not a novel, however, but a Vonnegut miscellany. In his preface, Vonnegut explains:' A wampeter is an object around which the lives of many otherwise unrelated people may revolve, The Holy Grail would be a case in point. Foma are harmless untruths, intended to comfort simple souls. An example: "Posterity is just around the corner." A granfalloon is a proud and meaningless association of human beings. Taken together, the worlds form as good an umbrella as any for this collection. The collection is wide-ranging, invariably thought-provoking, swooping from space-exploration to the Maharishsi Mahesh Yogi, from Biafra to the mysterious Madame Blavatsky, a screenplay, as yet unproduced, provides a hair-raising vision of where spare-parts surgery may lead.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'Crazy? Yes, crazy. But brilliant. It seems, at times, as if Voltaire has returned to satirise the horrors of plastic, disposable America.' - Sunday Times (Review quote taken from the back panel about "Breakfast of Champions") ***A nice collectable copy of one of Vonnegut's less common first UK editions from the 1970s. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Codice articolo 2213z
