Pages: 5 discs
Genre: Fiction
Grade: C+
Synopsis: Kilgore Trout is an aging writer from some of Vonnegut's other books. Kilgore is intrigued (and slightly aghast) when he finds out that a car dealer from the Midwest believes everything that Kilgore writes is the literal truth. Throughout the book, Vonnegut makes light of America's attitude towards sex, politics, war, etc.
My Review: I finished this book a couple of months ago and the honest truth is that I can't remember all that much about it. This may be due to the fact that I had a hard time comprehending what was going on in the book as I was listening to it. I looked up a few summaries that helped me understand what was going on and that helped. The book is a satire of Vonnegut's view of the world, which he wrote as a present to himself for his 50th birthday.
