内容简介

Kurt Vonnegut's absurdist classic Slaughterhouse-Five introduces us to Billy Pilgrim, a man who becomes 'unstuck in time' after he is abducted by aliens from the planet Tralfamadore. In a plot-scrambling display of virtuosity, we follow Pilgrim simultaneously through all phases of his life, concentrating on his (and Vonnegut's) shattering experience as an American prisoner of war who witnesses the firebombing of Dresden.

Slaughterhouse-Five is not only Vonnegut's most powerful book, it is also as important as any written since 1945. Like Catch-22, it fashions the author's experiences in the Second World War into an eloquent and deeply funny plea against butchery in the service of authority. Slaughterhouse-Five boasts the same imagination, humanity, and gleeful appreciation of the absurd found in Vonnegut's other works, but the book's basis in rock-hard, tragic fact gives it unique poignancy -- and humor.

作者简介

Born in 1922, Vonnegut grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana. His architect father suffered great financial setbacks during the Depression and was unemployed for long stretches of time. His mother suffered from mental illness and eventually committed suicide in 1944, a trauma that haunted Vonnegut all his life. He attended Cornell in the early 1940s, but quit in order to enlist in the Army during WWII.

Vonnegut was shipped to Europe, fought in the Battle of the Bulge, and was captured behind enemy lines and incarcerated in a German prison camp. As a POW, he witnessed the firebombing of Dresden by Allied forces, an event of devastating magnitude that left an indelible impression on the young soldier.

After the war, Vonnegut returned home and married his high school sweetheart. In addition to two daughters and a son of their own, he and his first wife adopted three children orphaned in 1958 by the death of Vonnegut's sister Alice. (He and his second wife adopted another daughter.) The family lived in Chicago and Schenectady before settling in Cape Cod, where Vonnegut began to concentrate seriously on his writing. His first novel, the darkly dystopian Player Piano, was published in 1952 and met with moderate success. Three additional novels followed (including the critically acclaimed Cat's Cradle), but it was not until the publication of 1969's Slaughterhouse Five that Vonnegut achieved true literary stardom. Based on the author's wartime experiences in Dresden, the novel resonated powerfully in the social upheaval of the Vietnam era.

Although he is best known for his novels (a genre-blending mix of social satire, science fiction, surrealism, and black comedy), Vonnegut also wrote short fiction, essays, and plays (the best known of which was Happy Birthday, Wanda June). In addition, he was a talented graphic artist who illustrated many of his books and exhibited sporadically during his literary career. He died on April 11, 2007, after suffering irreversible brain injuries as a result of a fall.

　　话声未歇，猛可里，就觉得一股子冷风，穿心直入，胸口上一阵子发痛，低头一看，由不得吓了个脸色透青，敢情是没有注意到，不知道什么时候对方手上竟握着把光华璀璨的宝剑，剑尖直直地指在自己胸上，分明已刺透外衣，扎在了肉上，只顺手往前一推，孙二掌柜的这条命可就别想要了。

也因为这个缘故，冯内古特的幽默和讽刺时常关注现行的政府和政治。他在2005年出版的《没有国家的人》中用了“耶鲁大学的C等生”、“启斯东式警察”、“预言家”等形象。“耶鲁大学的C等生”指从耶鲁大学毕业，学习成绩不好的学生。在美国政坛，耶鲁毕业生有着强大的势力。美国中央情报局有耶鲁大学校友会之称，美国前任总统克林顿，现任总统布什都来自耶鲁大学。冯内古特说这些耶鲁生出身高贵，知识贫乏，是“明目张胆的白人至上主义者”，有“最令人恐怖的精神变态人格”。“启斯东式警察”原本指的是1914－1920年间，由美国启斯东影片公司拍摄的喜剧片中的美国警察形象。他们头脑简单，干活卖力，可始终装腔作
