In God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian, Kurt Vonnegut skips back and forth between life and afterlife as if the difference between them were rather slight.

This fictional adventure, that began as a series of 90-second interludes for WNYC, New York City's public radio station, has evolved over the past year as a strange and lasting work of the imagination. God Bless You, Dr. Kevorkian follows on Vonnegut's three previous works, the bestselling novel Timequake, Bagombo Snuff Box: Uncollected Short Fiction and, with Lee Stringer, Like Shaking Hands with God (Seven Stories Press).
