제5도살장

Vonnegut's use of time jumps and metafictional elements really shape the story’s impact. I wonder if this was a deliberate choice to reflect the chaos of war or if it evolved during writing.

The book balances tragedy and comedy in a way that makes me question how humor can serve as a coping mechanism. Did this tone shift how others experienced the story?

The repeated phrase 'So it goes' feels like a mantra for accepting everything. What do others think Vonnegut was saying about control over our lives?
