If you've read Slaughterhouse Five and thoughts that was Vonnegut's best wok, (which it probably might be), you'd still not be disappointed, because this story contains a very similar experience of satire at its best and will give you many moments of laughter at highly inappropriate situations.

I'm simply a fan of Mr. Vonnegut's writing now and I know people say that his biggest and most ardent fans are teenagers, but since I hadn't read any of his books in my teenage years, I can say you can never be too old to become a fan of his books, especially if you love satire as a genre.

Can't wait to read more of his books and thank Bokonon that he has written so many!
