About Welcome to the Monkeyhouse / Palm Sunday
A diabolical government asserts control by eliminating orgasms from sex in the title story of ***Welcome to the Monkey House*** - setting the tone for a collection shot through with Vonnegut's acrid wit, and his bewilderment at the corruption of humanity. From riffs on country music, George Bush, and his mother's midnight mania, to a bittersweet tribute to a dead friend, ***Palm Sunday*** demonstrates why Kurt Vonnegut is equally well known as an essayist and commentator as he is a novelist. This caustic, funny and poignant collection resonates with Vonnegut's singular voice.
