Kurt Vonnegut has died. So it goes.
So, Kurt Vonnegut is dead at 84.
Well, he was getting up there, but it wasn’t like he died from a heart attack. It was a fall a while back and the injuries he sustained from it.
It’s also not like I was the world’s biggest Vonnegut fan, but to discount the work he did would be silly. Plus, I think he’s the one who helped science fiction become “literary.” It was rare before Vonnegut that science fiction was taken seriously outside of the genre’s circles.
