After writing Slaughterhouse-Five, Vonnegut returned to Dresden - TopicsExpress



          

After writing Slaughterhouse-Five, Vonnegut returned to Dresden and gave a copy of the book to the taxi driver, who has since passed away. That gift had landed in the hands of the library patron standing in front of Elke Zeigler. The man wanted me to give this book to the American students, Zeigler said. So I promised him that I would. Now a vintage East German version of Vonneguts Slaughterhouse-Five will join Kyle Royses preserved paperback amongst the six exhibit containers for the journey back to the United States. The gift will be christened into the traveling collection and serves to show that Vonneguts voice does, indeed, still resonate. dw.de/us-students-bring-kurt-vonnegut-back-to-dresden-for-firebombing-anniversary/a-17424777
