Summary: Brilliance is occasionally "Craziness"
Comment: The review titled "craziness" is a little off base. It is a science fiction novel, as well as a portrayal of the hell of war, through different genres. This is just more proof that books like this should be taught, not banned.
Its a warm refresher, to read an anti-war book that doesn't preach. If that is indeed what you are looking for, you should pick it up.

Summary: The Time Theme
Comment: This book has so many different themes; it is impossible to address them all at once. The concept of time is a major theme played with. This theme begins to weave into the story with these words: "Listen: Billy Pilgrim has come unstuck in time." The novel is Tralfamadorian in nature--it doesn't make sense when you look at each piece individually. It makes sense only when you see it all together at once. There truly is no beginning, middle, and end. Time is a comfort because it sees no end. Death is not an end. It is merely an unpleasant event in one's life, which is okay because there are plenty of other events in one's life in which they are very happy. This is what Billy Pilgrim learned from the Tralfamadorians. I think it is something that everyone should take away from this book.

Summary: Craziness
Comment: over all i thought this book was very unrealistic and very hard to follow. To be at war one moment and then to be obducted by aliens in the next moment is total craziness. I think Kurt Vonnegut is a very good writer but the subject that he was writing about wasn't something anyone could relate to.
