Publisher's Note
According to Kurt Vonnegut's alter ego, science fiction writer Kilgore Trout, a global timequake will occur in New York City on February 13, 2001, at 2:27 p.m. It will be the moment when the universe suffers a crisis of conscience: Should it expand or make a great big bang? For whatever cosmic reason, it decides to back up a decade to 1991, forcing everyone to endure ten years of deja-vu ("a purgatory of reruns") and a total loss of free will. A mind-blowing new novel by the author of "Hocus Pocus" and "Galapagos".

Industry reviews
"Often very funny."
Steinem 

"At 74, Vonnegut has had enough of the writing life, he tells us in the preface, and 'Timequake' was obviously inspired by his sense that his life's work is winding down. But let me be just the latest to declare that this work has been a blessing. Vonnegut may not have finished the novel, but for a generation of readers he still writes the book."
Udovitch

Straight off the bookstore shelf, with only very, very minor hints of aging and wear.  Excellent condition.  First edition Vonnegut with no price clipping, no remainder marks, no book club.  Some minor sticker residue on front dj at top which can be eradicated with lighter fluid.  IMPORTANT: (1) I try to give buyers a break on postage, which usually means media mail, which is SLOWER than higher priced priority. If you want instant delivery, please do not bid on my items; (2) I do not burden buyers unnecessary emails - if you purchase, I will send an invoice, and when you pay, I will mail out your package (if you want acknowledgment by email, just let me know); (3) I will leave positive feedback to anyone who extends me the same courtesy - just check my own over 1900 positive feedbacks and the positive feedbacks I have left for many others. Thank you.My cumulative positive feedback rating is just about 99.9 %. Check out my other items!Be sure to add me to your favorites list!My Stores Logo
