I have a strong suspicion that anything I could say has already been said about such a renowned book. Except perhaps, that it's not my favourite Vonnegut, or the one that made the biggest impact. That award still goes to Mother Night. Slaughterhouse-Five doesn't simply wrap a tale of the travesties of war up in a 'might be sci fi - probably the effects of trauma on a veteran and POW' narrative with the aliens and the time travel. 1/?
