Slaughterhouse-five [preloaded audiobook]
Preloaded Audio
Unabridged.
Billy Pilgrim, a World War II veteran and POW, has, in the later stage of his life, become unstuck in time and experiences at will (or unwillingly) all known events of his chronology out of order and sometimes simultaneously. Traumatized by the bombing of Dresden at the time he had been imprisoned, Pilgrim drifts through all events and history, sometimes deeply implicated, sometimes a witness. The "unstuck" nature of his experience may constitute an early novelistic use of what we now call post-traumatic stress disorder; then again, Pilgrim's aliens may be as real as Dresden is real to him. Struggling to find some purpose, order, or meaning to his existence and humanity's, Pilgrim meets the beauteous and mysterious Montana Wildhack (certainly the author's best character name), has a child with her, and drifts on some supernal plane, finally, in which Kilgore Trout, the Tralmafadorians, Montana Wildhack, and the ruins of Dresden do not merge but rather disperse through all planes of existence.
