Vonnegut memorial library to open
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Three years after his death, pieces of Kurt Vonnegut's life are coming together in his hometown, where a new library will open this fall to chronicle the "Slaughterhouse Five" author's harrowing World War II experiences and his works that struck a chord with the Vietnam generation.
The Kurt Vonnegut Memorial Library will be part library and part museum, with first editions of his books, a replica of his writing studio, his Purple Heart and rejection letters that preceded his success.
