Odd but cleverly told tale of the firebombing of Dresden in WW2, through the eyes of Billy Pilgrim, unhitched in time and (possibly) abducted by aliens from Tralfamadore... So it goes.

The first chapter was so well done and I loved the narration and set up there. The parts will Billy Pilgrim were less compelling, I think just because of the character and the disjointed storytelling (although I know that was the point).
Really interesting interpretation of ptsd. I also love the idea that we don’t die, we’re alive in all the moments we are remembered in. Although I can understand Vonnegut’s perspective on how difficult it is to grapple with that when you have bad moments. But I think this book shows us it’s just as important to remember the bad as it is the good - maybe more so.
