Description
“[Kurt Vonnegut’s] best book . . . He dares not only ask the ultimate question about the meaning of life, but to answer it.”—Esquire
Nominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read
The Sirens of Titan is an outrageous romp through space, time, and morality. The richest, most depraved man on Earth, Malachi Constant, is offered a chance to take a space journey to distant worlds with a beautiful woman at his side. Of course there’ s a catch to the invitation–and a prophetic vision about the purpose of human life that only Vonnegut has the courage to tell.
“Reading Vonnegut is addictive!”—Commonweal

Closer to the Goal
3By Sebaj1891Reading all of Vonnegut's books in order shows a wonderful evolution of a writer explaining the meaning of life while searching for it himself.Great book
5By RandkiTruly a must read, although why it costs 11.99 is beyond me.Kurt Vonnegut At The Top Of His Game
5By jimmyb1Hilarious and sad at the same time. If your favorite book is The Bible, steer clear of this one.Amazingly Engaging
4By Darth MucklerBy far better than the overrated Slaughterhouse Five. If you can read only one Vonnegut book, put this one at the top of the list.Amazing
5By RedSox3My favorite book of all time. A true classic. Philosophical sic-fi at its best!
