Adolph Eichmann
asked, "Is it absolutely necessary to have a literary agent?" Eichmann was in a cell next to Howard Campbell, Jr., a Nazi by reputation and a former U.S. counter-intelligence agent in fact. Howard had been discovered hiding out in a Greenwich Village attic by the publisher of The White Christian Minuteman. The discovery was but one small chapter in the mad, macabre history of Howard W. Campbell, Jr. As Richard Schickel has said, MOTHER NIGHT is an "intensely charged book, a marvelously compressed piece of writing - and a paradox...an artful, zestful cartoon that lets us see despair without forcing us to surrender to it. Over the years Vonnegut has advanced from diagnostician to exorcist, finding in intensified comic art the magic analgesic for the temporary relief of existential pain."
