Finally read Slaughterhouse Five. I think I'll have to read the rest of Kurt's novels now (I generally stick to nonfiction).
And so it goes.

They’re all good, but Slaughterhouse Five is his best by far, IMO
A terminal temporal causality echoing the false cored assumption of high life unable to tell the right fucking time to for a couple of hours have an open gateway to hell all the way back to vegas.
Remember vegas? I do.

Why do schizophrenics always find me
I lived Catch 22, though not quite as badly. I heave an affinity for Vonnegut.
Vonnegut loved Heller. My favourite book by Heller (actually, my favourite book) is Something Happened. I’ve a signed first edition 
Are you a fan of Max Hastings too? I finished up his book in Vietnam a couple of weeks ago and have read some of his other books as well and I think he’s an excellent historian.
I really enjoyed the one I read from him. It had a real pace to it and I learned a lot - you get to understand the decisions that were made (with terrible info) and the chaos that was going on
Yeah that’s how his Vietnam book was too. You get a lot of the decision making and the background on the war rather than just the battles and fights.
He is mainly a war historian and outside of personal accounts I'm not very interested in reading about war. Too close.
That sounds confusing. I mean historians and outsider perspectives. They always lack understanding and portray it as a chess game with quips and quotes from wealthy men in safe offices.
His style is much different from most other war historians I’ve read. He doesn’t focus on the battles so much as the motivations and the people. He also doesn’t really pull punches when talking about the people.
I don't know that. That might be something I'd have to check out in the future.
Cats Cradle is my favorite
