Cat's cradle book review. In Cats Cradle I think Vonneguts own perceived purpose as a writer bleed through to the pages more than in his other novels. It was one of his earlier publications iirc. Bokonon finished writing the Books of Bokonon all the while commenting on human stupidity.

His world view has always seemed to me to be without illusion though sometimes lacking in joy or hope. Cats Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut is a satirical novel of black humour. First published 1963 Vonnegut is not for everyone and I suspect many would find him far too cynical to truly enjoy.

John wrote this narrative Cats Cradle as a record of what had occurred while Newt painted Hazel sewed Lowe cooked and Frank studied ants.

Cats Cradle Review As usual Vonnegut brings his unique sense of humor and absurdity to the proceedings making for a deliciously whacked out. Its a classic and Im a bit embarrassed that I had never read it until now. To this day I still do not understand the deep meaning and symbolism behind it.

It is somewhat amusing in a wry way and quite enjoyable. I have the exact copy that I read when I was a high schooler complete with my underlined text. Cats Cradle starts out with our narrator Jonah working on a book about Felix Hoenikker a fictional scientist and equally the fictional father of the atomic bomb.

Cats Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. Looking for a book full of truth that is actually full of shameless lies. 4 of 5 stars Overall this book is categorized as a comedy.
