Culture: Kurt Vonnegut’s unpublished short stories see the light of day
- I was sitting in a bar one night, talking rather loudly about a person I hated — and a man with a beard sat down beside me, and he said amiably, ‘Why don’t you have him killed?’
- From an excerpt of “Look at the Birdie” • A previously unpublished Kurt Vonnegut short story that’s out this week. The excerpt from “Birdie” features the protagonist in the midst of a colorful bar conversation – you know, the kind of colorful bar conversation we’re often involved in. Vonnegut died in 2007, and “Birdie” is his second posthumous work. • source
