A masterful collection of twenty-five short stories from the inimitable Kurt Vonnegut

A MASTERFUL COLLECTION OF TWENTY-FIVE SHORT STORIES FROM THE INIMITABLE AUTHOR OF SLAUGHTERHOUSE 5, KURT VONNEGUT

‘Vonnegut is George Orwell, Dr Caligari and Flash Gordon compounded into one writer…a zany but moral mad scientist’ Time

A diabolical government asserts control by eliminating orgasms. A scientist discovers the secret to unlocking instant happiness, with unexpected consequences. In an America where everyone is equal every which way, a tennage boy plans to overthrow the system.

Welcome to the Monkey House gathers together twenty-five of Kurt Vonnegut’s short stories from the 1950s and 1960s. Shot through with Vonnegut’s singular humour, wit and bewilderment at humanity, this is a collection that celebrates a true master of short-form fiction.
