Let your fellow Booktalkers know that you plan to read and discuss Slaughterhouse-Five with them. Just make a quick post here so that everyone knows they won't be discussing this classic just with themselves. :lol:

And should we start referring to BookTalk.org members as Booktalkers?

I'll personally be reading this one. I've long been interested in all things related to WWII, the antiwar movement and especially the Holocaust so this is right up my alley. Thank you Robert Tulip for leading yet another great BookTalk.org book discussion.

Definitely. I may or may not re-read the book, but I love it and look forward to discussing it.

Aha! I figured out how to DL the free .pdf to my Kindle. I've read this a few times and look forward to it again. I always get confused on why the Tralfamadorians are there. Are they real? Are they a hallucination from Billy Pilgrim's PTSD? Is it an alternate timeline from a cosmic perspective? I'll see how it hits me this time...

Will contrast this again with one of our many Patriotic Paradigms: America has never, cannot now, and will never ever commit a war crime.

I'm a little late to this but I'll be keeping up with the discussion and hopefully adding some thoughts of my own. Thanks!

Any chance of fixing the typo in the title of this thread?


On edit: Done. (That doesn't fix titles in responses.) I also capitalized the first word in the sentence above. 😁
