Description: Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut Signed by illustrators and author of the introduction. An American classic named by Modern Library as one of the top 20 best novels of all time Slaughterhouse-Five is Kurt Vonnegut's semi-autobiographical, science fiction infused anti-war masterpiece that defies genre. An instant bestseller, Slaughterhouse-Five made Kurt Vonnegut a cult hero in American literature, a reputation that only strengthened over time, despite the book being banned and censored by some libraries and schools for content and language. In 2019, The New Yorker wrote, "Vonnegut's novel is about that, about the inevitability of human violence, and about what it does to the not particularly violent human beings who get caught up in it." The novel was a finalist for the National Book Award, and it was nominated for both the Nebula and Hugo.
