Cat's Cradle.

First edition of the author's classic novel. Octavo, original cloth. Inscribed by the author to his friend and neighbor in a contemporary hand, "Kurt Vonnegut Jr. For my neighbor Peter- who knew me when- and still does." The recipient was Peter Eustace, who was a friend and neighbor of Vonnegut in Barnstable, Massachusetts. They were involved in the Barnstable Comedy Club together, along with other activities when Cat’s Cradle was published in 1963. Some of the usual fading to the cloth, an excellent copy in a very good dust jacket. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. A nice association.
