Review of 'Breakfast of Champions CD' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

Exactly one year ago today, I joined in the celebrations of Kurt Vonnegut’s 95th birthday and bought Breakfast of Champions, which happened to be his 50th birthday present to himself. Filled with his characteristic dark humor and his felt-tip pen drawings, Vonnegut brings forth the matter of free will, among a plethora of societal issues.

“Let others bring order to chaos. I will bring chaos to order, instead, which I think I have done.”

And, I think he has done so with great skill.
