How about a special edition of his favorite Kurt Vonnegut book? You can also get him a collection of Vonnegut's works or a biography of the author. If he's into art, you can get him a limited edition print of Vonnegut's artwork which he sometimes created for his own book covers. Another idea could be tickets to a local literary event, or a festival that celebrates the life and works of Kurt Vonnegut. If he's a coffee drinker, a mug or shirt featuring a quote from his favorite Vonnegut book might also make a great gift.
Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.
