Wow, this really is an experience. This book is like no other book I've read, almost deconstructing the whole idea of a book. Vonnegut's voice shines through with every word. His hatred and revulsion of war is visceral and palpable.

The absurdity of the aliens' philosophy--that the future is set and and you must resign yourself to it--speaks strongly for active engagement in anti-war movements. Maybe you don't stop the war, but at least you tried.
