Cat's cradle: A wonderful, funny satire covering human folly in general, religion, banana republics, Americans abroad, the cold war and the real war. Brilliant!

How do you choose just ONE Vonnegut book? Another of my allā€time favorite writers, this collection reveals him at his most compassionate, and that's saying a lot for a writer whose heart was larger than the whole world. If I had one book to choose for everyone in the world to read, "God Bless You

Mr. Rosewater" would probably be it, but all of these should be read.

Good, but not up to the standards I enjoy with Vonnegut. The second or third time to read the book, but after a certain number of readings, the message loses its impact. Finished 20.08.20.

Mediocre to Good. The introduction/preface seems to be the best part after multiple readings of his books. Finished 04.09.20.
