About this listen

The Sirens of Titan is an outrageous romp through space, time, and morality. The richest, most depraved man on Earth, Malachi Constant, is offered a chance to take a space journey to distant worlds with a beautiful woman at his side. Of course there's a catch to the invitation and a prophetic vision about the purpose of human life that only Vonnegut has the courage to tell.

As an added bonus, when you purchase our Audible Modern Vanguard production of Kurt Vonnegut's book, you'll also receive an exclusive Jim Atlas interview. This interview – where James Atlas interviews Gay Talese about the life and work of Kurt Vonnegut – begins as soon as the audiobook ends.

What the critics say

“Vonnegut is George Orwell, Dr. Caligari and Flash Gordon compounded into one writer . . . a zany but moral mad scientist.” ( Time)
“His best book . . . He dares not only ask the ultimate question about the meaning of life, but to answer it.” ( Esquire)
“Reading Vonnegut is addictive!” ( Commonweal)

This was my first time reading Kurt Vonnegut and I wasn't disappointed. I really enjoyed his writing style. The story is somewhere between Snow Crash and Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The narrator did a fantastic job, even differentiating between the same characters at different times of their lives. Worth the read.

Pleasantly Surprised

What can you expect from one of the greatest writers of satire and science fiction? Sirens of Titan was interesting, funny, and expressive. I've listened to some of his other novels and it shares ideas and themes from previous stories. Jay Snyder was a great narrator and I highly recommend this book to all.

Amazing
