Cat's cradle book review. A book that left an indelible mark on an entire generation of readers Cats Cradle is one of the twentieth centurys most important worksand Vonnegut at his very best. Cats Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut In my quest to read all of Vonneguts works in the order they were written my next stop on the ride was Cats Cradle. His world view has always seemed to me to be without illusion though sometimes lacking in joy or hope.

Kurt Vonneguts Cats Cradle God Bless You Mr. Cats Cradle is an irreverent and often highly entertaining fantasy concerning the playful irresponsibility of nuclear scientists. 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.

Bokonon finished writing the Books of Bokonon all the while commenting on human stupidity. In Cats Cradle I think Vonneguts own perceived purpose as a writer bleed through to the pages more than in his other novels. In the book Cats Cradle Kurt Vonnegut uses discreet humor irony and his own made up religion Bokononism to illustrate how science is.

Cats Cradle is a short book unhindered by lengthy exposition or world building there is no wasted space at all and the rich intelligent dialogue combined with brief chapters means that many people could read this in one or two sittings. 5 chips of ice-nine out of 5. It requires a lot of understanding of symbolism and good connection skills.

Let me start off by saying that Cats Cradle was a good book but super weird. I mean I guess its kinda funny but not like Im laughing or anything. As you are reading it doesnt take long to start reflecting on life hope and the future.

The writer of Cats Cradle divided the book into 127 chapters it of each chapter is significant to each from the paragraphs which come within the chapter. 4 of 5 stars Overall this book is categorized as a comedy. God playfully sends out His creation to follow endless rabbit trails.
