As part of the Arts & Humanities Council’s annual Granfalloon festival, we invite our smart friends from around the world to our home in Bloomington, Indiana for several days of enlightened conversations and idea-sharing. The 2018 academic conference focused on the work, life, and legacy of our good pal Kurt Vonnegut, and many of our friends had very smart things to say about the old man. For your edification and enjoyment, we proudly present these papers from the 2018 conference.
