Thanks, Mr. Vonnegut, You're Free to Go

"The world does not need another novel now, for God's sake, and I feel that I've done everything I can do. Please, can't I go home now?"

--author Kurt Vonnegut in an interview with J. Rentilly that appeared in Pages magazine just six months ago

Vonnegut also commented to the BBC News two months ago that he felt "embarrassed" to have lived to the age of 83, saying, "It's in terrible taste." He also joked, "I'm suing a cigarette company because on the package they promised to kill me, and yet here I am."
