The Kurt Vonnegut Memorial Library scheduled to open this fall in downtown Indianapolis will be part library and part museum, with a collection including first editions of his books, a replica of his writing studio, his Purple Heart and rejection letters that preceded his success.

The 1,100-square-foot space will also house an art gallery featuring his distinctive line drawings and a gift shop that will help generate income for the nonprofit library, said Julia Whitehead, the museum's executive director and founder.

and of course my fav:

Quote:
Kurt Vonnegut

People who played Creep by Radiohead while having sex or smoking pot. Longer explanation:



Hey! You’re a fan of Kurt Vonnegut? So is that kid you know. And your uncle – the cool one. Everyone has an ex boyfriend or girlfriend that were Kurt Vonnegut fans. And that relationship was memorable. Because Vonnegut fans are crazy.

The first comments written after I wrote my “Readers by Author” post were by people asking me to do a Vonnegut stereotype.

Which was hard because Vonnegut fans are ever-changing. You know you are.

Vonnegut fans are the quiet guy/girl in your ninth grade math class who turns into the slightly popular rebel by senior year. In college they turn into an art student. After graduation, they end up working in pharmaceuticals. After the first divorce, they turn into a full-time blogger. Or some sort of story that resembles a thousand different paths you took to where you are now.

You’re the craziest people in the world.

Vonnegut people are too random and varied for me to stereotype. However, I at least know they are rebels enough to have made love or smoked pot at some point in their life to the song Creep by Radiohead.

[I wish I were a Vonnegut kid]
