The Sirens of Titan - Kurt Vonnegut
When Winston Niles Rumfoord flies his spaceship into a chrono-synclastic infundibulum he is converted into pure energy and only materializes when his waveforms intercept Earth or some other planet. But at least, as a consolation, he now knows everything that has ever happened and everything that ever will be. As a result, he only gets home to Newport, Rhode Island, once every fifty-nine days and then only for an hour.
He also knows that on Titan -- one of Saturn's moons -- is an alien from the planet Tralfamadore, who has been waiting 200,000 years for a spare part for his grounded spacecraft... He knows, for instance, that his wife is going to Mars to mate with Malachi Constant, the richest man in the world.
