- Description
- Kurt Vonnegut's bemused stoicism helps us enjoy the cosmic joke underlying even the worst excesses and follies of humankind. His literary fiction often employs science fiction conventions to support his own satiric, anti-scientific, humanist ends: promoting the practice of simple human kindness and decency in spite of mankind's foolish, self-destructive tendencies. This constructive, humorous and thought-provoking irony bristles through the author's frank, opinionated prose. Unpredictable, even extreme, characters; nonlinear plots; and settings designed for effect complete the thought-provoking and enjoyable effects of story and style. Start with: Slaughterhouse Five
