Kurt Vonnegut. Galapagos.
"The name of the author, sure, does not require advertising. The story is a sort of a "second Noah's Ark" – a Pacific cruise that due to a global catastrophe is destined to become the cradle of a new civilization. The novel intertwines three time lines, describing the causes of these events, their development, and the effect. Resorting to humor, Vonnegut creates a desperate genealogical adventure – a mix of the Old Testament, the Latin American novel, and a collage comic book, where he fantasizes about what the mankind will turn into in a million years. "Galápagos" is an ironic story of the last days of the modern civilization, primarily comic reflections on the human nature."
The book is published within The Library of Babel Project.
