A Man Without a Country was a New York Times Bestseller and a Booksense Notable Book. In January 2007, Vonnegut indicated that he intended this to be his final work – a statement proved correct, with his death in April 2007.[2] All of Vonnegut's later works were published posthumously and consisted almost entirely of previously unpublished material.
