OverviewThe follow-up to Slaughterhouse-Five and the only play written by cult writer Kurt Vonnegut For eight years, big game hunter and war hero Harold Ryan has been presumed dead, lost in the Amazon rainforest while hunting for diamonds. Now he's back, only to find his wife engaged to a hippy doctor and his son transformed into a pampered sissy. Though his hunting trophies remain, an inexplicable birthday cake sits in the living room bearing a strange icing inscription- Happy Birthday Wanda June. Can the household bear the returning force of Harold's machismo? And who on earth is Wanda June?
