Jailbird
Vonnegut, Kurt
Jailbird / Kurt Vonnegut - New York : Delacorte Press , 1979 - 246 p. ; 22 cm
Index included
Jailbird takes us into a fractured and comic, pure Vonnegut world of high crimes and misdemeanors in governmen - and in the heart. This wry tale follows bumbling bureaucrat Walter F. Starbuck from Harvard to the Nixon White House to the penitentiary as Watergates least known co-conspirator. But the humor turns dark when Vonnegut shines his spotlight on the cold hearts and calculated greed of the mighty, giving a razor-sharp edge to an unforgettable portrait of power and politics in our times.
