I just finished reading this book and imo it was my favorite work of his, surpassing Slaughterhouse-5 and his other more well known books, why isn’t this one discussed with the greats? I thought the book was devilishly hilarious and an excellent satire, balancing the tone in a way I’ve never seen handled. If you haven’t read it, give it a try, it crams so much content in a fairly short book. Definitely instantly became one of my favorites of all time.

    I just read this earlier this year as my introduction to Vonnegut and thought it was great satire and tone, OP said. It definitely encouraged me to keep exploring other books by him, and I just checked Slaughterhouse 5 out from the library!
