Slaughterhouse Five Mugs
Description: Prisoner of war, optometrist, time-traveller - these are the life roles of Billy Pilgrim, hero of this miraculously moving, bitter and funny story of innocence faced with apocalypse. Slaughterhouse 5 is one of the world's great anti-war books. Centring on the infamous fire-bombing of Dresden in the Second World War, Billy Pilgrim's odyssey through time reflects the journey of our own fractured lives as we search for meaning in what we are afraid to know.
Description: Kurt Vonnegut was the master of mixing sharp wit with deep truths, turning science fiction into stories about life, war, and everything in between. He made us laugh at the chaos of war, question free will, and see the quirks of human existence in a whole new light. In Vonnegut’s world, life’s messy, but at least it’s funny. So it goes.
