Harry takes on different personas based on his acting role in this author’s story “Who Am I This Time?”, which appears in a collection whose title story is about a society with “Ethical Suicide Parlors.” This author wrote a story in which the title character shouts, “I am the Emperor!” to a ballet and a man winces at a “twenty-one-gun salute” in his head. This author’s collection Welcome to the Monkey House includes a story set when “everybody was finally equal” in which the Handicapper General shoots the title 14-year-old prison escapee. For 10 points, name this author of “Harrison Bergeron,” who also wrote about the firebombing of Dresden in Slaughterhouse-Five. ■END■
