Kurt VonnegutCat's Cradle

The best packaging I've ever received when it comes to buying books. Hope penguin classics keep doing the same. The book was individually wrapped in a plastic covering. Paper quality again seems good enough.And for the reading bit, allow me to paraphrase someone here when he said Kurt Vonnegut said satirical pieces are not seriously funny but funnily serious. Go ahead and make this investment.

It's a preety solid book, I wouldn't consider it his best work. If you're looking for a definitive Kurt Vonnegut experience, I'd recommend starting with 'The Sirens of Titan' instead.

Fun, Humourous and Thought Provoking.Brilliant sci-fi prose from a great writer.

While this is hilarious, so is it scary. Just the idea of how the world might end frozen is terrifying.Beside that, every character is alive in his own sense. Dynamic and an enjoyable read

As much as I like Kurt's way of holding together a plot with kooky characters and mincing dialogues, I found it a bit convulated and punishing to read at times.

Brialliant the end of the world...... I look for to the last team up the mountain and last fall off the end of the world ..... into the homeless abyssless non-ride.... 3 cheers for the cat's cradle

This was a fabulous read. If you like Vonnegut's apocalyptic stories with a touch of sarcasm and dry humour, this will surely entertain you.

Very witty book
