Description
Broad humor and bitter irony collide in this fictional autobiography of Rabo Karabekian, a seventy-one-year-old who desires solitude on his Long Island estate, guarding the secret locked inside his potato barn. However, his peace is disrupted when a voluptuous young widow persistently urges Rabo to recount his life story. Through Rabo’s narrative, Vonnegut reveals the plain, heart-hammering truth about humanity’s careless inclination to create or destroy what it loves.
