Disclaimer:
I read this novel, and the novels in the upcoming reviews, quite a while ago
(mostly during the summer). Therefore, these reviews will be a little bit short
and simple because I took no notes etc.
Title: Slaughterhouse-Five
Author: Kurt Vonnegut
Genre: War, Modern classic, Absurdist
Year: 1969
Pages: 215
Slaughterhouse-Five is an unconventional novel discussing the Second World War and consequential trauma. The narrator tells us the story of Billy Pilgrim, who, after having been abducted by aliens, gets unstuck in time.
I
feel like it’s really been too long since I’ve read this novel to write a
proper review. All I really wanted to say is that I was very intrigued by the
story, and want to read it again and again. The writing style, the story,
everything was equally interesting.
Once
I reread this novel – hopefully within the next year – I will write a more
elaborate and meaningful review.
