Sir Ian McKellen Reads a Letter From Kurt Vonnegut

 In 2006, a group of students at Xavier High School in New York City were asked to write to their favourite author and ask him or her to visit the school. Five of those pupils chose Kurt Vonnegut; He was unable to make the trip. Instead, he wrote a wonderful letter. He was the only author to reply.
Sir Ian McKellen reads that letter to a group of high school students.
