Hocus Pocus (novel)
''Hocus Pocus, or What's the Hurry, Son?'' is a 1990 novel by Kurt Vonnegut.
==Introduction==
The main character and narrator is Eugene Debs Hartke, a Vietnam War veteran and college professor, and carillonneur who realizes that he has killed exactly as many people as the number of women he has had sex with. The character's name is a homage to American labor and political leader Eugene V. Debs and anti-war senator Vance Hartke, both from Vonnegut's home state, Indiana.〔Vonnegut, Kurt (2012 Edition). Kurt Vonnegut: Letters. Delacorte Press eBook. p. 15. ISBN 978-0-345-53539-9.〕 The novel is structured as if it were written on many scraps of paper and assembled afterwards, "The unconventional lines separating passages within chapters indicate where one scrap ended and the next began." Incidentally it actually was written on scraps. He started on a brown paper bag, and used several hundred scraps, of many different varieties during his writing.〔Vonnegut, Kurt (November 1991 Edition). Hocus Pocus. Berkley mass-market edition. p. vii of the Editor's Note. ISBN 978-0-425-13021-6.〕
