"The goal of Breaking Down Vonnegut is to clarify some essential facts about Kurt Vonnegut's life and to address the themes underlying his imaginary worlds. Those themes, often cloaked in science fiction, historical parallels, and social science conundrums, address the major questions of life: the values by which we choose to live. Breaking Down Vonnegut will feature an overview of Vonnegut's life and a dive of Vonnegut and the war. The book will showcase the multiple genres in Vonnegut's world; a brief thematic tour through Vonnegut's short fiction; exposition of the underlying structure that repeats in every Vonnegut novel; a look into Vonnegut's life after Slaughterhouse Five; and reading Kurt Vonnegut today"-- Provided by publisher
