Lilly Endowment contributes to Vonnegut fest
Posted by Scott Shoger @scottshoger on Wed, Jul 11, 2012 at 3:30 PM
Vonnegut, who was born on Armistice Day, was in Dresden as a prisoner-of-war when the city was fire-bombed, an experience he wrote about in Slaughterhouse-Five. Beyond showcasing Vonnegut's work, the library has made Vonnegut's social, artistic and political concerns part of its purview in terms of programming.
The event remains open to sponsors; for more information contact Julie Whitehead, executive director of the Kurt Vonnegut Memorial Library, at info@vonnegutlibrary.org or call 317-652-1954
