Kurt Vonnegut is a master of contemporary American literature. His black humor, satiric voice, and incomparable imagination first captured America' s attention in The Sirens of Titan in 1959 and established him as a " true artist" * with Cat' s Cradle in 1963. He is, as Graham Greene has declared, " one of the best living American writers." Mother Night is a daring challenge to our moral sense. American Howard W. Campbell, Jr., a spy during World War II, is now on trial in Israel as a Nazi war criminal. But is he really guilty? In this brilliant book rife with true gallows humor, Vonnegut turns black and white into a chilling shade of gray with a verdict that will haunt us all. *"The New York Times"" A great artist." "Cincinnati Enquirer" " Vonnegut is George Orwell, Dr. Caligari and Flash Gordon compounded into one writer... a zany but moral mad scientist." "Time"
