If you know anything about me you’ll know my number 1 absolute favorite book is Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut, an absolute masterpiece about his experiences in Dresden during the firebombing (which incidentally killed more people than Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined).

Well for fellow Vonnegut fans, he has recently written Cold Turkey, a state of the union address from a beloved American literary icon. Go read it, you’ll be glad you did.

Next blog: Iraqi prisoner abuse and America’s history since it’s birth of the torture and killing of people of colour.
