Slaughterhouse-Five (Or The Children's Crusade) is the trademark Vonnegut book.
Informed by his own experiences in the war, Vonnegut examines what makes humans human. The good and the bad, the love and the hate. His satire of American capitalism and patriotism cut to the bone and are equally as relevant today as they were then.
