Fantastic adaptation of Vonnegut’s great novel. Kept all the horror of the original novel, & maybe then some? My only complaint is that the horror-struck-German-guards-as-barbershop-quartet was not fully illustrated. The recurrence of the a Barbershop Quartet in Slaughterhouse-Five highlighted to me how truly odd an institution the Barbershop Quartet is. The Wikipedia article for “barbershop music” says “[some] researchers argue that today's barbershop music is an invented tradition related to several musical features popular around 1900….“ While I was reading it, I didn’t really notice the parts from the novel that were left out of the graphic adaptation; I only remembered some later, when thinking about the book, and writing this review. I was perfectly fine with North & Monteys dropping the part comparing the mountain rescuers to golliwogs, and some of the parts making fun of Pilgrim’s wife. In my mind, the closest comparison to this comic is the Slaughterhouse-Five movie, which I thought was pretty good. The only aspect that I thought the movie did better than the graphic novel adaptation was having Ekkehardt Belle & Friedrich von Ledebur as the very young & the very old German guards. I meant to pace myself a lot more reading this book, but I just couldn't help myself & had to keep reading it. Very glad I followed my impulse & picked this up at the library.
