Galapagos: A Novel (Delta Fiction)
€œA madcap genealogical adventure . . . Vonnegut is a postmodern Mark Twain.€Â€"The New York Times Book Review
Gal¡pagos takes the reader back one million years, to A.D. 1986. A simple vacation cruise suddenly becomes an evolutionary journey. Thanks to an apocalypse, a small group of survivors stranded on the Gal¡pagos Islands are about to become the progenitors of a brave, new, and totally different human race. In this inimitable novel, America€ s master satirist looks at our world and shows us all that is sadly, madly awry€“and all that is worth saving.
Praise for Gal¡pagos
€œThe best Vonnegut novel yet!€Â€"John Irving
€œA satire in the classic tradition . . . a dark vision, a heartfelt warning.€Â€"The Detroit Free Press  €œInteresting, engaging, sad and yet very funny . . . Vonnegut is still in top form. If he has no prescription for alleviating the pain of the human condition, at least he is a first-rate diagnostician.€Â€"Susan Isaacs, Newsday  €œDark . . . original and funny.€Â€"People  €œA triumph of style, originality and warped yet consistent logic . . . a condensation, an evolution of Vonnegut€s entire career, including all the issues and questions he has pursued relentlessly for four decades.€Â€"The Philadelphia Inquirer  €œWild details, wry humor, outrageous characters . . . Gal¡pagos is a comic lament, a sadly ironic vison.€Â€"St. Louis Post-Dispatch  €œA work of high comedy, sadness and imagination.€Â€"The Denver Post  €œWacky wit and irreverent imagination . . . and the full range of technical innovations have made [Vonnegut] America€s preeminent experimental novelist.€Â€"The Minneapolis Star and Tribune
