“YoYoYOYOYO Triple H whats up dogWould you recomend this book?”
“I had to read this book for my AP English class and personally I wasn't a fan of it. The ideas may be good in theory but I thought the storyline was downright ridiculous, I've never been into science fiction books though. We have to choose an two essay topics and one of mine is: how might the passive Tralfamadorian attitude reflect a common attitude toward war among Americans? I was just looking for some more ideas and to hear other people's opinions.”
“Listen. 5's the number of the slaughterhouse. There were another 4 before it. Poo-tee-weet?”
“5 chosen? but book absurd if absurd why meaning? why not slaughterhouse -? Vonnegut hurt bad food making one go to the lavatory”
“slaughterhouse 5? why not 6 or 7 or 8 number meaningless like stupid billys life”
“I can't help but love everything that he writes, his irony and ability to tell stories that correlate directly with any space in time make his writing the kind that you want to go back and reread time and time again. His leaving our world this last year takes one more soul away whom I felt a true alliance toward. He understood humanity and our weaknesses unlike many other authors I have read. RIP KV”
“Well, I don't know anything about your son, so I can't tell him how the book relates to his life...But it's a poignant story considering current situation with America and Iraq. Slaughterhouse Five is one of the great anti-war books of all time, ask him how he thinks the story relates to the current war that America is engaged in. What does the book show him about young people in war, what does he think we can learn about the "war on terror?"That is, assuming you are American.Try not to write his report for him. English is important, take it as many times as you must in order to come out an intelligent, critical adult.”
