Review by Synedocheny
May 30Clever, funny, and reflective.
A Vietnam veteran who is a Physics teacher at a university for stupid rich kids across a lake from a prison. He's a philanderer with a crazy wife.
Vonnegut is great at weaving elements of the story around each other.
Themes about the idiocy of Americans feel still relevant. There is a lot about Americans selling out to other countries, particularly Japan. American history of racial problems is prominent.
