- aenis 4y agoAlso, easy to understand. When I learn a new language I usually start with Vonnegut's book to pick up the vocabulary and grammar - since his prose is so easy to read. And lovely, of course.
- Cockbrand 4y agoAt first I was baffled, but then I came to absolutely love the literary utility of the phrase "… and so on" in a novel, which I've only seen in Vonnegut's writing.
