VONNEGUT READS. The 92nd Street Y must be getting a ton of hits--deservedly--for posting this recording of Kurt Vonnegut reading from his manuscript of Breakfast of Champions.

Listen to it...soak in the convivial vibes...hear how clearly Vonnegut's prose comes across when read aloud...note his genius for creating and latching onto clever extended metaphors...and also notice when Vonnegut makes what could be one of the great literary Freudian slips when he pronounces his narrator's name with a T instead of a D.

Thanks to Emdashes (among others) for the lead.
