Look at the Birdie: Short Fiction

Â
Look at the Birdie is a collection of fourteen short stories from one of the most original writers in American fiction. This series of perfectly rendered vignettes, never before published in Kurt Vonnegutâ‚¬s lifetime, reveals a warm, wise, and funny portrait of life in postâ‚¬â€œWorld War II Americaâ‚¬"a world where squabbling couples, high school geniuses, misfit office workers, and small-town lotharios struggle to adapt to changing technology, moral ambiguity, and unprecedented affluence. Featuring a Foreword by author and longtime Vonnegut confidant Sidney Offit, Look at the Birdie is an unexpected gift for readers who thought that Vonnegutâ‚¬s voice had been stilled foreverâ‚¬"and serves as a terrific introduction to his short fiction for anyone who has yet to experience his genius.
