Description
This volume brings together some of the best classic and contemporary criticism on Vonnegut's famous novel. New essays describe the cultural moment in which Slaughterhouse-Five appeared, analyze Vonnegut's unique comic sensibility, and compare the novel with Joseph Heller's Catch-22. The selection of classic and contemporary essays includes an examination of the autobiographical nature of the work and Vonnegut's attempts to come to terms with the events he witnessed in Dresden. Other essays discuss his treatment of death, the novel's science-fiction elements, and a comparative analysis of the novel and its film adaptation.
