Kurt Vonnegut s black humor, satiric voice, and incomparable imagination first captured Americas attention in The Sirens of Titan in 1959 and established him as a true artist ( The New York Times ) with Cats Cradle in 1963.
He was, as Graham Greene declared, one of the best living American writers.
Vonnegut died April 11, 2007.
