Notes

General Note
"Published in trade paperback in the United States by Dial Press, 2005"--Title page verso.
General Note
Originally published: New York : Delacorte, 1969.
General Note
"A fourth-generation German-American now living in easy circumstances on Cape Cod [and smoking too much], sho, as an American infantry scout hors de combat, as a prisoner of war, witnessed the fire-bombing of Dresden, Germany, 'The Florence of the Elbe,' a long time ago, and survived to tell the tale. This is a novel somewhat in the telegraphic schizophrenic manner of tales of the planet Tralfamadore, where the flying saucers come from. Peace."
General Note
"A novel"--Cover.
