Unfortunately, the Vonnegut of Harrison Bergeron died somewhere between Breakfast of Champions and Slapstick and even his pale ghost was never seen again, as Kurt himself made a very sharp left turn into oblivion.

A friend of mine worked at a NPR radio station. He was left of center but still rational. He sent me a tape of a Vonneget interview shortly before Vonneget died. My friend had not aired it because it was obvious that Vonneget had dementia. He went on an incoherent rant about how he was thankful that he had a pasty complexion because George Bush wanted to kill everyone paler than himself. He’d obviously lost it but of course NPR thought it was great stuff.

As did Springsteen. Affluenza victims all.
