Title: Sucker's Portfolio Condition: New Subtitle: A Collection of Previously Unpublished Writing Author: Kurt Vonnegut Format: Paperback ISBN-10: 1611099587 EAN: 9781611099584 ISBN: 9781611099584 Publisher: Amazon Publishing Genre: Fiction Topic: Literary Criticism Release Date: 12/03/2013 Description: Available for the first time, Sucker’s Portfolio showcases a collection of seven never before published works from Kurt Vonnegut, one of the greatest writers of the 20th century. Short, sardonic, and dark, these six brief fiction stories and one non-fiction piece are consummate Vonnegut with piercing satire and an eye for life’s obscene inanity. Also available for the first time is an unfinished science-fiction short story, included in the appendix.These stories trace trivial human lives and mundane desires, which is precisely where Vonnegut’s inimitable perspective as a humanist shines, illuminating his alternating hopeful and dismal outlook, although undoubtedly focusing on the latter. Here as in his greatest novels, Vonnegut’s writing takes us to the darkest corners of the human soul and with wit and humor, manages to remind us of our potential to be something greater.
