Passing of a Legend

Author Kurt Vonnegut died Tuesday night.
As much as I love to read I don't really care for fiction, especially pompous overrated fiction.
So the only thing I know about Vonnegut is that according to the teacher in "Back to School," "whoever wrote this knows nothing about Vonnegut."



Has any Poophead ever read anything by Vonnegut? If yes, I bet it's Reissberg or maybe Damino in some pompous Ivy League class.

    Strangely enough, I'm halfway through Slaughterhouse Five at this very moment.

    I made it halfway through Slaughterhouse Five before boredom finally forced me to toss it. What a load of crap.

    Apparently Slaughterhouse Five was informed by his real life experiences as a POW in Nazi Germany in 1945.
    Other than that I know nothing about it.
    Maybe a case for Paulo's book club
