Synopsis "Bagombo Snuff box"
Before the Golden Age of magazines drew to a close half a century ago a young PR man at General Electric sold his first short story to one of the doomed publications. By the time he d sold his third he decided to quit GE and join the likes of Hemingway and Fitzgerald and Faulkner and try to make a living at $1500. With four major magazines running five stories each week and smaller ones scouting as well it was a seller s market and Vonnegut was published regularly by The Saturday Evening Post Collier s Argosy and others. For this unusual collection Vonnegut has selected twenty four of his favourite stories never published before in book form and has written a new preface for the occasion. Vonnegut scholar Peter Reed who unearthed the old publications contributes an introduction. The stories bring us to the beginning of a literary voice that is sure to last forever. BAGOMBO SNUFF BOX the missing pieces of the master s oeuvre is a ready made classic for Vonnegut fans new and old.
