The first and only collection of unpublished works by Kurt Vonnegut since his deatha fitting tribute to the author, and an essential contribution to the discussion of war, peace, and humanitys tendency toward violence. Armageddon in Retrospectis a collection of twelve new and unpublished writings on war and peace. Imbued with Vonneguts trademark rueful humor, the pieces range from a visceral nonfiction recollection of the destruction of Dresden during World War IIan essay that is as timely today as it was thento a painfully funny short story about three Army privates and their fantasies of the perfect first meal upon returning home from war, to a darker, more poignant story about the impossibility of shielding our children from the temptations of violence. Also included are Vonneguts last speech as well as an assortment of his artwork, and an introduction by the authors son, Mark Vonnegut. Armageddon in Retrospectsays as much about the times in which we live as it does about the genius of the writer.

In what began as a series of quirkily characteristic ninety-second interludes for New York's public radio station, Kurt Vonnegut asks, on behalf of us all, the Big Questions.Could death be a quality? A place? Not an ending but an occurrence that changes those to whom it happens?As a "reporter on the afterlife," Vonnegut bravely allows himself to be strapped to a gurney by his friend Jack Kevorkian and dispatched round-trip to the Pearly Gates. Or at least that's what he claims in the introduction to these thirty-odd comic and irreverent "interviews" with the likes of William Shakespeare, Adolf Hitler, and Clarence Darrow, bringing readers to an entirely new place -- a place to which only Vonnegut could bring us.
