3.96 AVERAGE


Bizarre and inconsistent, but any author who uses "boozily" as an adjective deserves at least four stars.

Didn't care for most of these stories. I think there was a reason they weren't published during KV's lifetime.

A great collection of short tales, showing off Vonnegut's cynical optimism to a tee.

I really enjoyed this collection.
