I just couldn't get into it. I've seen Mermaid Chair in stores.
I personally didn't like "Breakfast of Champions" as much as most, and have not read "Bluebeard", but I am a huge Vonnegut fan. I think his most famous, "Slaughterhouse Five" and "Cat's Cradle", are most famous for a reason--I think they're really the best. And right now they are so relevant to our time. I also love "Mother Night", which is about an American working as a double agent in Nazi germany--"We are who we pretend to be so we must be careful who we pretend to be." Wonderful.
