Cat's CradlePaperback, 8 September 1998

****"A free-wheeling vehicle . . . an unforgettable ride!"--*********The New York Times

Cat's Cradle* is Kurt Vonnegut's satirical commentary on modern man and his madness. An apocalyptic tale of this planet's ultimate fate, it features a midget as the protagonist, a complete, original theology created by a calypso singer, and a vision of the future that is at once blackly fatalistic and hilariously funny. A book that left an indelible mark on an entire generation of readers, Cat's Cradle is one of the twentieth century's most important works--and Vonnegut at his very best.

**"[Vonnegut is] an unimitative and inimitable social satirist."--*Harper's Magazine

"Our finest black-humorist . . . We laugh in self-defense."--Atlantic Monthly
