Vonnegut's Word War on World War-II. Science Fiction as an Anti-war Satire

      Аннотация: War is one of the major literary strategies throughout Vonnegut’s writing. To uphold his beliefs against war and wartime crimes he utilizes science fiction, but no one reads them for the delights of that genre. Because his famous war narratives make him as an anti-war novelist. His autobiographical introspection demonstrates the ideological depth of his novels; therefore, he consciously operates many rhetorical devices to represent his ideas on America and its history. This book certainly validates Kurt Vonnegut’s satirical and optimistic outlook on the 20th-century American life and its literature. It also provides information about Vonnegut’s representation of other dominant subject matters, characterization, and backgrounds. It is very useful for Vonnegutian scholars those who are seriously looking for handy referral sources.
