Description
Kurt Vonnegut's iconic anti-war novel follows Billy Pilgrim, a man who has become "unstuck in time." Captured by the German army during World War II, Billy survives the horrific firebombing of Dresden while imprisoned in a slaughterhouse. The narrative weaves together Billy's experiences as a POW, his encounters with fellow soldiers, and his surreal journey through different moments of his life. Through a fragmented and darkly humorous lens, Vonnegut grapples with the trauma of war, fate, and the human condition.
