About this product
Product Information
When Winston Niles Rumfoord flies his spaceship into a chrono-synclastic infundibulum he is converted into pure energy and only materializes when his waveforms intercept Earth or some other planet. As a result, he only gets home to Newport, Rhode Island, once every fifty-nine days and then only for an hour. But at least, as a consolation, he now knows everything that has ever happened and everything that ever will be. He knows, for instance, that his wife is going to Mars to mate with Malachi Constant, the richest man in the world. He also knows that on Titan -- one of Saturn's moons -- is an alien from the planet Tralfamadore, who has been waiting 200,000 years for a spare part for his grounded spacecraft...Product Identifiers

Not one of his best
The actual book was in excellent condition and at a very good price. But compared with Kurt Vonnegut's other works, and works by other SF writers, I found it a bit disappionting: 'Masterwork' is definitely an over-hype. That said, I did read it to the end, so maybe I'm just being picky ...Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Sirens of Titan
This is the Best Sci-Fi Book I've ever read. Vonnegut is a genius: how does he think up stuff like this. It's got everything - great characters, time travel, planets, the chronosynclastic infuldibrium and a tear at the end. I've read 28 Sci-Fi books this year including 8 P K Dick books, Jack Vance, Clarke, Pohl, Zelazny, Aldiss, Vogt, Wolfe and others, but Sirens of Titan is THE ONE. Do not miss it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
