  English-language book club! This book club is for you if you’d like to:
  • meet like-minded people and have engaging conversations about the boo
 ks we read • improve or maintain your English vocabulary\, reading compr
 ehension\, and speaking skills Participation is free for now\, but registr
 ation is required so we can keep the group small and comfortable (maximum 
 10 people). If you’d like to join\, send me an email to ripplesbookclub2
 026@gmail.com and I’ll confirm your registration provided that free spot
 s are still available. You can order the book online at Libristo\, Amazon 
 etc.\, or borrow it from libraries such as Metropolitan Ervin Szabó Libra
 ry. About the book: Slaughterhouse-Five\, an American classic\, is one of 
 the world’s great antiwar books. Centering on the infamous World War II 
 firebombing of Dresden\, the novel is the result of what Kurt Vonnegut des
 cribed as a twenty-three year struggle to write a book about what he had w
 itnessed as an American prisoner of war. It combines historical fiction\, 
 science fiction\, autobiography\, and satire in an account of the life of 
 Billy Pilgrim\, a barber’s son turned draftee turned optometrist turned 
 alien abductee. Just as Vonnegut had\, Billy experiences the destruction o
 f Dresden as a POW. Unlike Vonnegut\, he experiences time travel\, or comi
 ng “unstuck in time.” Fifty years after its initial publication at the
  height of the Vietnam War\, Vonnegut's portrayal of political disillusion
 ment\, PTSD\, and postwar anxiety feels as relevant\, darkly humorous\, an
 d profoundly affecting as ever\, an enduring beacon through our own era’
 s uncertainties.
