i know the the teenager the author mentions in the preface of the book or is it the intro. many i guess think he does not exist, but he does. the author even sent him a leather bound edition of this tome autographed. the book, will like most the this author's works--not my taste. some like this type of pizza, i do not.

If I ever said, and I did, that Vonnegut could not write realism well, then shut my mouth. Now, this book does have a bit of the fantastical in it, but basically it carries the same sardonic humor that one comes accustomed to in Vonnegut, delivered in a realistic, if fanciful casing.

Nice book real page-turner. Tells a very compelling and easy to follow story in language that is simple yet effective. Definitely enjoyed and am excited to read more Vonnegut

Maybe Vonnegut's most political work, dealing with the Watergate scandal, attacking capitalism and communism and having a more serious approach to it even though it is still unmistakably Vonnegut. I wouldn't call this one of his top books, I would place quite a few above it, but it still is a fast paced and amusing joyride which only Vonnegut could write.
