Kurt Vonnegut's absurdist classic Slaughterhouse-Five introduces us to Billy Pilgrim, a man who becomes 'unstuck in time' after he is abducted by aliens from the planet Tralfamadore. In a plot-scrambling display of virtuosity, we follow Pilgrim simultaneously through all phases of his life, concentrating on his (and Vonnegut's) shattering experience as an American prisoner of war who witnesses the firebombing of Dresden. </p>
Slaughterhouse-Five is not only Vonnegut's most powerful book, it is also as important as any written since 1945. Like Catch-22, it fashions the author's experiences in the Second World War into an eloquent and deeply funny plea against butchery in the service of authority. Slaughterhouse-Five boasts the same imagination, humanity, and gleeful appreciation of the absurd found in Vonnegut's other works, but the book's basis in rock-hard, tragic fact gives it unique poignancy -- and humor. </p>
獨特的反戰小說,通過主人公比利的獨特感受譴責德國法西斯的殘暴,並嘲笑人類發動戰爭的愚蠢。

評分像往常一样,看英文小说我容易忽略细节,所以说得不见得准确... For an anti-war novel, it is certainly unconventional to start with ' Listen: Billy Pilgrim has come unstuck in time' and end with 'Poo-tee-weet'. When trying to approach something as majorly ca...
評分小說是這樣開頭的。馮內果曾歷經過德累斯頓(香港的譯名。英文是Dresden)的大轟炸。他覺得只要把自身的經歷好好重述一遍,要寫本暢銷的書是多麼容易啊。然後他去找他的老朋友去回憶戰爭往事取材。 他老友的妻子可是相當不高興,在他們傾談期間不斷四處踱步、製造燥音。馮內果終...
幽默與喜劇的真髓一直就是悲憫地暴露人的脆弱愚蠢和對終極問題的熾誠追問。從頭笑到尾,字字精彩。
