A classic from surrealist Vonnegut that should be ob everyone’s TBR. The story of Billy Pilgrim (what an awesome name for a character!) and Dresden echos in Gravity’s Rainbow by Pynchon and Catch-22 by Keller and is truly on of the monumental anti-war characters in American if not world literature. In these days of renewed global conflict with the also renewed threat of nuclear exchanges (Korea, Middle East...), it is especially poignant and a must read.
