Listen – once, two wives ago, two hundred and fifty thousand cigarettes ago, three thousand liters of alcohol back … Then, when everyone was young … Listen – the world rotated, the rich languished with stupidity and boredom, there was only one thing – to be free and smart. True, it was implausible than any fiction. Women were angry and beautiful, and men were unhappy and full of stupid hopes. And life was spinning, her life was spinning, he got confused more and more – like a wild, strange game called “Cat Cell” …
The volunteer in the ranks of the US Army during the Second World War, captured by the Germans, the witness of the almost complete destruction of Dresden, Vonnut transferred this experience to the pages of his most famous novel – “Brotherhood number five, or the crusade of children”, in which the facets between the present and the past, the world and the war, reality and fantasy, madness and sobriety are erased.
