In hardcover, paperback and audiobook: The Brothers Vonnegut
Worlds collide in this true story of two brothers working side by
side in the early Cold War, one trying to take control of the weather with
science, the other trying to take control of science with words. Read more
about the book here.
“This is superb, provocative, and crystal-clear narrative
nonfiction, supplying a unique angle on the major issues that
Bernard faced privately and Kurt confronted in his
writing.” Booklist (starred review)
“The Brothers Vonnegut is a gem. Strand has unearthed
a little-known, complex story about science and politics that
touches on big questions about ethics and progress, and she
delivers it with an infectious and unabashed
exuberance.” San Francisco Chronicle
