Slaughterhouse-five : or the children’s crusade : a duty-dance with death

An American classic and one of the world’s seminal antiwar books, Kurt Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-Five is faithfully presented in graphic novel form for the first time from Eisner Award-winning writer Ryan North (How to Invent Everything: A Survival Guide for the Stranded Time Traveler) and Eisner Award-nominated artist Albert Monteys (Universe!).Listen: Billy Pilgrim has… …read Kilgore Trout …opened a successful optometry business …built a loving family …witnessed the firebombing of Dresden …traveled to the planet Tralfamadore …met Kurt Vonnegut …come unstuck in time. Billy Pilgrim’s journey is at once a farcical look at the horror and tragedy of war where children are placed on the frontlines and die (so it goes), and a moving examination of what it means to be fallibly human.
