Review of 'The Brothers Vonnegut' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Quite good, this history bounces between writer Kurt Vonnegut and his brother Bernard, contrasting writing and reality. An interesting behind the scenes for both scientist and writer, with excellent pacing. Contains a full set of notes and bibliography of sources. Recommended!

I really enjoyed both the look behind Kurt's stories and the science behind Bernard's research. Cloud seeding is a really interesting topic, though a full scientific explanation would require more depth. Also interesting were the connections between GE and the government in these research programs. Anytime a book drives me to read multiple additional books, I know it's good. I look forward to reading more about weather and also diving into [b:Timequake|33586715|Timequake|Kurt Vonnegut|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1482743991s/33586715.jpg|6835609], Kurt's last book.
