Great Book

I found this masterpiece much better than the famed Slaughterhouse-Five. To me, it was a better and more moving story. This book has truly changed my life and made me a better person. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

a pretty damn good book

It's not Slaughterhouse-Five or anything, but if you want a Vonnegut satire, look no further than this if you've already read Breakfast Of Champions.

Brilliant portrayal of life as ivory-tower dwellers know it.

To paraphraze Winston Churchill, if you don't weep over Vonnegut's acclaimed social satire at 20, you have no heart. If you still weep while re-reading it at 35, you have no brain. By masterfully portraying the abyss between the "dirt-poor" and "filthy rich", wittily arguing that the latter are far more useless than the former, Vonnegut only casually mentions the fairly well-washed millions in between; the ground on which the demarcation lines are blurred, and his personal rules of humanism are frequently set aside in favor of garden-variety street smarts. Vonnegut's trademark quirky characters, vivid style, and tight, beautifully wrapped up plot are, as always, very useful weapons in his emotional blackmail: if you don't see the world on his terms, if you take neither side, be ashamed of yourself! Be very ashamed of yourself...

Great NoveL!

This was a great novel. I am not usually one to sit down and read a book cover to cover in one sitting, but I did that with this novel. I am a big vonnegut fan and Have not read one of his books that dissapointed me yet. this one was no different in that category
