Far fewer fans know that Vonnegut was also a talented graphic artist who drew as prodigiously as he wrote.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eKurt Vonnegut Drawings \u003c\/i\u003ebrings together the finest examples of Vonnegut’s funny, strange, and moving drawings in one beautifully designed volume. With a hint of cubism, mixed with a Paul Klee gift for caricature, a Calder-like ability to balance color and line, and more than a touch of sixties psychedelic sensibility, Vonnegut’s aesthetic is as idiosyncratic and defiant of tradition as his books. For Vonnegut, making art was a joyful activity; his delight is evident in the work featured here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeaturing 150 illustrations, some never before published, \u003ci\u003eKurt Vonnegut Drawings \u003c\/i\u003ealso\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eincludes an introduction by Vonnegut’s daughter, Nanette, who shares an intimate remembrance of her father, and an essay by Peter Reed, a scholar and Vonnegut’s longtime friend.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nanette Vonnegut","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":48020509556958,"sku":"9781580933773","price":49.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0425\/4567\/6440\/files\/BNCImageAPI_bac3d669-2cf3-4566-b590-b9bef2921ced.jpg?v=1774402974","url":"https:\/\/paragraphbooks.com\/products\/9781580933773","provider":"Librairie Paragraphe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
