Sanity Plea Schizophrenia in the Novels of Kurt Vonnegut

In this revised edition of a volume originally published in 1989, Lawrence Broer extends his comprehensive critique of the body of writing by Kurt Vonnegut. Broer offers a broad psychoanalytic study of Vonnegut’s works from Player Pianoto Hocus Pocus, taking a decisively new approach to the work of one of America’s most important, yet often misinterpreted writers. A compelling and original analysis, Sanity Plea, explores how Vonnegut incorporates his personal experiences into an art that is not defeatist, but rather creatively therapeutic and life-affirming.Broer, Lawrence R. is the author of 'Sanity Plea Schizophrenia in the Novels of Kurt Vonnegut' with ISBN 9780817307523 and ISBN 0817307524.
