Аннотация: Before the golden age of magazines drew to a
close half a centure ago-soon to be beaten at the entertainment
game by the new little boxes with moving images that were finding
their way into the homes of more and more Americans - a young
public relations man at General Electric sold his first short story
to one of the doomed publications. By the time he'd sold his third,
he decided to quit GE and join the likes of his then still-active
elders - Ernest Hemingway, F.Scott Fitzgerald, William Faulkner,
and John Steinbeck, to name a few - and try to make a living at
fifteen hundred dollars a pop. With four major magazines running a
handful of stories each week and smaller ones scouting as well, it
was a seller's market, and Kurt Vonnegut was delighted, and
comfortable, being published regularly by The Saturday Evening
Post, Collier's, Argosy, and others.
