Mother Night

Apologies for the broad and bland title.

I’ve just finished this in the last few minutes.

What a book!

I’m an emotional mess; the last few paragraphs reduced me to tears.

I’ve been dipping in and out of Vonnegut’s work in recent years, rationing them to make them last. As a teen I read and re-read Sirens of Titan and Slaughterhouse 5 multiple times, but didn’t delve deeper. I’m so glad I’m getting to appreciate his work at a leisurely pace and with more perspective.

Each book I finish becomes my absolute favourite, but I don’t think this one will be topped.

Fucking hell.

Wow.
