Venus on the Half-Shell is a science fiction novel by Philip José Farmer, writing pseudonymously as Kilgore Trout, a fictional recurring character in many of the novels of Kurt Vonnegut. This book first appeared as a lengthy fictitious excerpt—written by Vonnegut, but attributed to Trout—in Vonneguts God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater (1965). With Vonneguts permission, Farmer expanded the fragment into an entire standalone novel (including, as an in-joke, a scene that incorporates all of Vonneguts original text). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venus_on_the_Half-Shell
