"Vonnegut died in 2007 at the age of 84 due to injuries he sustained in a fall several weeks earlier. "

" "Kurt Vonnegutโs (1922-2007) rough felt tip pen illustrations have always perfectly fit his novels, emerging seamlessly out of the satirical prose, delightful and raw and sad and disgusting and touching and always contextually appropriate." http://flavorwire.com/221252/a-brief-survey-of-famous-writers-who-also-made-art "
