Slapstick (1976)

Bibliographic Information:
Vonnegut, Kurt. (1976). Slapstick. 274 pgs.

Plot Summary:

“Slapstick presents an apocalyptic vision seen through the eyes of the current King of Manhattan (and last President of the United States), a wickedly irreverent look at the all-too-possible results of today’s follies. But even the end of life-as-we-know-it is transformed by Vonnegut’s pen into hilarious farce-a final slapstick that may be the Almighty’s joke on us all.”
- From back cover of Slapstick
