The latest On the Media podcast has a great radio piece by Vonnegut recorded some years ago.

Strange coincidence -- I was in Victoria on vacation, completely disconnected from any news and buying several used Vonnegut paperbacks at exactly the time this happened.

I'd never before made the connection between Vonnegut and Zevon - but now it makes perfect sense. Thanks for that. Is it just me, or do we need Vonnegut now more than ever?

Mathew, I share your sadness. I discovered Vonnegut quite late at a Douglas Coupland reading. Douglas Coupland (one of my favorite authors) rated him as his inspiration and model. On that note I bought 8 of his books and devoured them over the last few years. Stories of Tramalfadore (spelling?) etc will last in my mind for years to come. A sad day
