Cat's cradle book review. There is no world-building going on and so I dont feel like I bought into it as a reader and thus the invented words were just annoying. It requires a lot of understanding of symbolism and good connection skills. Is a book about big issues nuclear war environmental concerns and the role of governments.
Cats Cradle is a whole new level of weird. His world view has always seemed to me to be without illusion though sometimes lacking in joy or hope. First published 1963 Vonnegut is not for everyone and I suspect many would find him far too cynical to truly enjoy.
It was one of his earlier publications iirc. Cats Cradle offers an interesting analysis of religion through Bokononism in which believers maintain that they are all instruments of Gods Will whether they wish to be or not. However as the narrators mind changes about whether hes going to actually write this book or not the story itself changes.
Cats Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. This book was recommended in my opinion by my own sister the lady knew I would really prefer because its is a épigramme science fictional works and it is different than other catalogs. In the end Cats Cradle is a highly imaginative work of satire.
Looking for a book full of truth that is actually full of shameless lies. Like the game of cats cradle itself where Newt points out there is no cat and there is no cradle life religion and everything else are false and meaningless. I highly doubt he was a crypto-Catholic.
4 of 5 stars Overall this book is categorized as a comedy. I have the exact copy that I read when I was a high schooler complete with my underlined text. I think you nailed the insights of the book and gave a great review.
