A review by queenbethie
Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut

3.0

I first read this book 25 years ago (college) and thought it was amazing--poignant, timely, thought-provoking and thoughtful. Revisiting it was a disappointment. I found the story to be disjointed and odd, lacking clarity and purpose. Ethan Hawke was a dull narrator, and didn’t help bring Vonnegut’s book to life. I wish I had left things with what I remember, rather than revisiting it and shattering the memory.
