His experience at Dresden marked him for life and eventually resulted in his literary masterpiece, Slaughterhouse-Five. Vonnegut took an advertising job at General Electric to support his family and began writing short fiction on the side. Kurt and Jane had two more children, Edith and Nanette, and Vonnegut redoubled his efforts to publish his stories.
In , his dystopian apprentice novel Player Piano was published. It became more imperative for Vonnegut to bring in more money. Within 10 years following the arrival of the Adams boys, the short-story market was drying up and Vonnegut turned his attention to novels. Rosewater and, in , his Dresden novel, Slaughterhouse-Five. In these books, Vonnegut mastered his trademark black comic voice, making his audience laugh despite the horrors he described. He had already developed a cult following of college students, but he broke through to a mass audience with Slaughterhouse-Five and the excellent film version of the novel that soon followed.
By the early s, Vonnegut was one of the most famous living writers on earth. Yet, the s proved a difficult time for Vonnegut. After his children grew up and left home, his long marriage to Jane fell apart. War remained a recurring element in his work, and one of his best-known works, Slaughterhouse-Five , draws some of its dramatic power from his own experiences.
The main character, Billy Pilgrim, is a young soldier who becomes a prisoner of war and works in an underground meat locker, not unlike Vonnegut, but with a notable exception: Pilgrim begins to experience his life out of sequence and revisits different times repeatedly. He also has encounters with the Tralfamadorians. This exploration of the human condition mixed with the fantastical struck a chord with readers, giving Vonnegut his first best-selling novel.
Emerging as a new literary voice, Vonnegut became known for his unusual writing style—long sentences and little punctuation—as well as his humanist point of view. He continued writing short stories and novels, including Breakfast of Champions , Jailbird and Deadeye Dick Despite his success, Vonnegut wrestled with his own personal demons. Having struggled with depression on and off for years, he attempted to take his own life in Whatever challenges he faced personally, Vonnegut became a literary icon with a devoted following.
His last novel was Timequake , which became a best-seller despite receiving mixed reviews. Vonnegut chose to spend his later years working on nonfiction. His last book was A Man Without a Country , a collection of biographical essays. In it, he expressed his views on politics and art, and shed more light on his own life.
Vonnegut died on April 11, , at the age of 84, as a result of head injuries sustained in a fall at his home in New York a few weeks earlier. He was survived by his second wife, photographer Jill Krementz, their adopted daughter, Lily, and six children from his first marriage.
