Vonnegut fans?

Mar 06, 2004 23:32

So, I am a member of a Vonnegut community. I don't understand why no one seems to list "Mother Night," "Slaughterhouse Five" or even "Sirens of Titan" as their favorite Vonnegut novels. I see everyone listing "Breakfast of Champions" listed as the favorite more often than not. It's good, but I don't even see the ones I've mentioned in their lists at all. I don't understand it at all.

What about the Nation of Two?

What about the thousands of Hansels and Gretels?

What about "There go my brains!" (or is it, "There went my brains!")

And the crying over the horse with the broken, bleeding hooves...

And of course, "They say a hanging man hears gorgeous music. Too bad that I, like my father, unlike my musical mother, am tone-deaf. All the same, I hope that the tune I am about to hear is not Bing Crosby's "White Christmas"...Goodbye, cruel world!"

Anyway, on a completely different note, here's

Me and my dream girl. Aislinn means " a dream." :-) And no cut because, well, I owe no one an explanation. :-)
