…come unstuck in time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][us_separator size=”small”][vc_column_text]Billy Pilgrim’s journey is at once a farcical look at the horror and tragedy of war where children are placed on the frontlines and die (so it goes), and a moving examination of what it means to be fallibly human.

Kurt Vonnegut’s black humor, satiric voice, and incomparable imagination first captured America’s attention in The Sirens of Titan in 1959, and established him as “a true artist” (The New York Times) with Cat’s Cradle in 1963. He was, as Graham Greene declared, “one of the best living American writers.” Kurt Vonnegut died in 2007.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE is the latest release from BOOM!
