jonscott9 's review for:
Breakfast of Champions
by Kurt Vonnegut
Vonnegut's thesis seems to be that "Men are machines." (Sure, it's cynical.) I thought this book had its highs and lows, times when I'd tear through it and others when it dragged me behind it.
The failed novelist Kilgore Trout is a great original character, though. And that's another thing -- Vonnegut's ace when it comes to naming memorable characters.
I do relish how he makes light of the inanities of our everyday existence. Example: Why is the lyric to the USA's national anthem peppered with questions?
