Kurt Vonnegut died April 11, 2005 to very little notice considering his position in American writing and his influence on people.
His last years were spend writing for the Chicago magazine, "In These Times," where his editor, Joel Bleifuss regularly printed his articles and thoughts.
These were edited by Joel and then re-edited by Kurt and Dan Simon at Seven Stories Press in New York City. The result was Vonnegut's last published work, "A Man Without a Country."
Listen to his wit and wisdom. "If this isn't nice, I don't know what is."
