Another iconic title from the brilliant space-wanderer Kurt Vonnegut - rejacketed in a new, witty series style

Discover Vonnegurt’s funny absurdist novel about the human condition.

‘Outrageous, witty, thought-provoking, unputdownable, scintillating, invigorating, ennobling, enlightening and masterly’ Spectator

In a frolic of cartoon and comic outbursts against rule and reason, a miraculous weaving of science fiction, memoir, parable, fairy tale and farce, Kurt Vonnegut attacks the whole spectrum of American society, releasing some of his best-loved literary creations on the scene.

‘Vonnegut explains everything from an apple to the pyramids…weird, fast and inventive’ Daily Telegraph

Praise for Breakfast of Champions

Vonnegut performs considerable complex magic... Fresh, funny, outrageous...he very nearly levitates

New York Times

A great deal of wit and playfulness...an entire universe of disorder is distilled

Guardian

Outrageous, witty, thought-provoking, unputdownable, scintillating, invigorating, ennobling, enlightening and masterly

Spectator

Brilliant... It seems, at times, as if Voltaire has returned to satirise the horrors of plastic, disposable America

Sunday Times

He’s just so fucking amazing. Everyone should read Vonnegut.
