Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
Amazing. I've never read anything like it. I have no idea how Vonnegut pulled off the balance of remorseful and funny. There's so much going on and so much to think about, it tackles so many themes, and the possibly unreliable narrator makes it such a fun but also sad read. I'm gonna be thinking about this a lot, contemplating what actually happened to Billy, whether he actually time travels and went to Tralfamadore, or if he actually had lost his mind after the war. I'll be thinking about what it says about free will and the inevitability of death.
Definitely the best book I've read this year, I can't recommend it enough
