Our first sale!!

We are so excited and proud to have made our first sale! Late last night we got an order for any Kurt Vonnegut novel in the collection. AND I PRESENT TO YOU MISS JULIA! 

"Breakfast of Champions" 
First Dell Edition, 1974

The first Vonnegut novel I read was "Cat's Cradle" as a part of a very failed attempt at a book club. I picked this copy of BOC up while touring with a band back in the fall. It's a fun trip through the identity of not just American Culture but of humanity, and that was so much of what Vonnegut was about, Ferlinghetti said of him,"he was of my generation a generation who came of age during World War 2, and he really articulated our consciousness." 
The Language is great and candid and it includes Vonnegut's drawings throughout.

In the package I will include some personal sketches, a hand made BookHook, and a small chap book of poems on American life.

Just a reminder too, if there is a book that you are looking for, email us at bookpeddlercontact@gmail.com
