nThe master at his quirky, provocative best.--Cosmopolitan nDeadeye Dick is Kurt Vonneguts funny, chillingly satirical look at the death of innocence. Amid a true Vonnegutian host of horrors--a double murder, a fatal dose of radioactivity, a decapitation, an annihilation of a city by a neutron bomb--Rudy Waltz, aka Deadeye Dick, takes us along on a zany search for absolution and happiness. Here is a tale of crime and punishment that makes us rethink what we believe . . . and who we say we are. n nPraise for Deadeye Dick n nA moving fable . . . Vonnegut, sweet cynic and ugly duckling, continues to write gentle swan songs for our uncivil society.--Playboy n nA brilliantly unconventional novel . . . a must for all Vonnegut fans.--Worcester Sunday Telegram n nHits the bulls-eye . . . dolefully celebrates the randomness of life, treating private and public disasters with a kind of reckless whimsy. . . . You dont read Kurt Vonnegut for meaning exactly. You read him for the sad-funny attitude of mind, the kind of weirdness that can interpret the worlds weirdness.--USA Today n nVonnegut is beguiling as ever . . . Incredible plot constructions and inventive language continue to leap from his typewriter . . . the humor is natural and inborn; the insight usually purchased by his characters at painfully high cost. Funny how life turns out. Even funnier how Mr. Vonnegut turns lifes insanities into funny, profound sense. That takes a masters touch. Mr. Vonnegut still has it.--Kansas City Star n nPlayful and imaginative . . . On finishing the novel, the kitchen of your mind is a cleaner and more well-lighted place than it was before.--Houston Chronicle n nEndearing and enchanting . . . a wise and charming book . . . very full of life.--Glamourn
