Suzanne McConnell has assembled a collection of Vonnegut's letters, bringing him back to life as a husband, prisoner of war, and her teacher. The audio version narrated by Karen White is a very strong performance.

A lot of great writing advice to chew on, and I'm sure I'll revisit it often. I also enjoyed the perspective on Vonnegut as a teacher that this provided. Unfortunately, it's a bit dated in some spots.

A perfect companion to Vonnegut fans, and a great source of inspiration to all writers, artists, and creators. The book gives insight to all his works while, also, offering wisdom to all of us hoping to follow in the footsteps of the great writers who have come before us.
