Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com
An odd book in that it mixes elements of science fiction with psychological analysis, Slaughterhouse-Five tells the story of Billy Pilgrim, a GI prisoner of war. He time-travels and wanders through a mysterious ether where spatial-temporal relationships are at odds with what we accept as reality.
WARNING: SPOILERS IN THIS REVIEW
| Customer Rating: | | I don't think the reviewer from England (and many others for that matter) understood that Billy Pilgrim went insane from the horrors he saw, and there were no aliens or time warps. It is simply a scatalogical novel, much live Pulp Fiction was a scatological movie. And much like Pulp Fiction, the story in Slaughterhouse Five was told this way to leave the biggest impact on the reader as possible. And it does. |
Not easy, but worth the effort
| Customer Rating: | | You have to accept this Vonnegut-style, or you will be disappointed just by his strange ideas about time-warp, extraterrestrials and his special wit. If you fight through, you will find more than this - it's a short book about a man/child, driven into WWII although neither grown-up nor a real soldier, just to be imprisoned by the germans to work for them. Through several timeshifts he tells us about his life, youth, WWII including the horrendous bombing of Dresden, his later life as an optometrist and ... ohh no - it's short enough that you can read it for yourself. Try it, but don't beat me nor the writer for not matching your special taste in books :-) |
How Lazy Can you BE?
| Customer Rating: | | You can read Slaughterhouse Five in a few hours. Nobody needs the Cliffs Notes to this book. Everyone knows Cliffs notes are not used for notes, so all you lazy students, just read the actual book. It's worth your time. Cliffs Notes don't deserve any stars, and in this case, don't waste your money. The book is incredibly simple, and short. Don't make it meaningless! |
Slaughterhouse Five: Giv me sum a dat
| Customer Rating: | | In this sci-fi novel Vonnegut thrills the reader with fantastic and wonderful tales of society. This book tells the story of war in a funkified version. Slaughterhouse Five is the emitome of the process of funkification. In this book there are hidden messages to Inseo Choi that enrich the experience of the reader. |
