Happy Birthday, Wanda June
Happy Birthday, Wanda June | Kurt Vonnegut
8 posts | 8 read | 4 to read
For eight years, big game hunter and war hero Harold Ryan has been presumed dead, lost in the Amazon rainforest while hunting for diamonds. Now hes back, only to find his wife engaged to a hippy doctor and his son transformed into a pampered sissy. Though his hunting trophies remain, an inexplicable birthday cake sits in the living room bearing a strange icing inscription: Happy Birthday Wanda June. Can the household bear the returning force of Harolds machismo? And who on earth is Wanda June?

Mehso-so

It wasn‘t a great play when it first premiered and it didn‘t age well. Vonnegut‘s problematic misogyny and homophobia really sticks out here. A necessary read for Vonnegut completists but everyone else may skip.

#Bookmail from the Kurt Vonnegut Museum & Library! How cool are the padded envelopes?! Lucky for me, the books were inside them, but then placed inside a larger box, so they were left unsealed. You know I‘m keeping them!

AmyG Great box. Love the puzzle! 2y
MrsMalaprop Oh my, I neeeed that puzzle. I already have the first lines mug. 🤗 2y
britt_brooke @AmyG @MrsMalaprop The puzzle looks so tough, but I had to have it! 🤩 2y

Mom and I went into a little bookstore in Ludington, Windowsill Books.
I added to my physical Vonnegut collection.
I also got a couple buttons. The one says “Read Banned Books”
I‘m really annoyed with the stickers on the front of the books. I can‘t get them off 🤬

tpixie I hate price stickers!! 2y
OrangeMooseReads @tpixie these wouldn‘t bother me more than normal if they weren‘t on the front. Stupid sticks on books! 2y

slategreyskies Sometimes Goo Gone works for me for removing stickers from books. It leaves a slight orange-y smell on them, but I‘d rather an orange smell than a sticker. 2y
LeahBergen Did you try heating them up with a blow dryer? 2y
OrangeMooseReads @Patchshank it should 😊 2y
OrangeMooseReads @slategreyskies I will have to give that a try 2y
OrangeMooseReads @LeahBergen well that would make sense LOL my brain is slightly burnout lately. I will try that, thank you 😊 2y

Good morning Littens! Why, that book looks really good on you. It really complements your ... brain. Who is up for the #lazyphotochallenge ? These writers are all November babies. What better way to celebrate the hours of bookish goodness they have given us than posting your favourite quote/ book on their special day? Photos of the writer's hometown/haunts/inspirations are also welcome (just don't get arrested for stalking). No need to post daily!

EnidBiteEm How say you for the 11th, @KilgoreTrout ? 8y
KilgoreTrout Haha I'm on it! My kindred spirit. November babies unite! 8y

EnidBiteEm @Cinfhen @Zelma I hope you'll join in with laziness at least once 😂 8y
britt_brooke Nice idea! And I'm a November baby myself. 🙋🏼 I didn't realize I was in such amazing company! 8y
EnidBiteEm @britt_brooke Are you sure you're not a writer already?? 8y
