it was amazing

I could write a long review and talk about every short story in this collection, but I'm not going to do that. There are just too many good stories in this collection. My personal favorite was probably "Harrison Bergeron" but I would have to think about that. It's not necessary that I have a "favorite" per se, but my mind just works that way.

If you're a Vonnegut fan, you've probably read this. If you've never read Vonnegut, give it a shot. It's a great way to start your journey into his mind. He can be hilarious and moving in the same story. I've enjoyed reading his works since I was in high school, and I will continue to do so for a long time.

In fact, I will continue reading his work "tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow."

Agnes "Harrison Bergeron" is my favorite too, even though it's not fair to play favorites. I love this book.


message 2: by Dan (new) - rated it 5 stars

Dan I found the story hilarious but also quite sad. It's unusual for a story to elicit both of those emotions in such a short number of pages.


Edmund Davis-Quinn Loved Harrison Bergeron too
