Vonnegut Calling
![]() |
Critically acclaimed author Kurt Vonnegut visits campus Wednesday, March 1, for an intimate chat with Ohio State students at 7 p.m. in the Ohio Union Ballrooms.
Vonnegut is a master in the American literary canon—he's penned such classics as Slaughterhouse-Five, Breakfast of Champions, Cat's Cradle, and Player Piano over the course of a 50-year career. His latest work, A Man Without a Country, is a wry, folksy commentary on politics, art and the "soul of America."
