/lit/ - Literature

I quite liked Slaughterhouse 5. What can I read next for something similar or just general recommendations.

Just finished reading this. What did I think of it? I don't think it was perfect. I think it was pointlessly erotic at parts and the whole fatalism/determinism theme was bordering on silly. But it was still beautiful. The line
>"Good night, Americans," he said in German. "Sleep well."
Made me feel things I haven't felt in a long time. Also the line
>so it goes so it goes so it goes so it goes so it goes so it goes
started to really make my ears bleed.
Overall 8.5/10, I'm convinced nuclear armaments and MAD are better than traditional war.

Name a more overrated piece of literature on the face of this planet. It feels like Vonnegut used Goebbels as his main source for the Dresden bombings. Also why is his prose so shit?

Is this worth reading?

I'm 22 and still haven't this book. I picked up a copy today, made a pot of coffee, and am ready to start reading. First, I need you all to tell me one thing: is this book gay and shitty? Honest answers only please.

Honestly, pic related

DUDE PECKERS LMAO

Thoughts on viewing time non-linearly?
Would it be a blessing or a curse?

>It was a movie about American bombers in World War II and the gallant men who flew them. Seen backwards by Billy, the story went like this: American planes, full of holes and wounded men and corpses took off backwards from an airfield in England. Over France, a few German fighter planes flew at them backwards, sucked bullets and shell fragments from some of the planes and crewmen. They did the same for wrecked American bombers on the ground, and those planes flew up backwards to join the formation.

>The formation flew backwards over a German city that was in flames. The bombers opened their bomb bay doors, exerted a miraculous magnetism which shrunk the fires, gathered them into cylindrical steel containers , and lifted the containers into the bellies of the planes. The containers were stored neatly in racks. The Germans below had miraculous devices of their own, which were long steel tubes. They used them to suck more fragments from the crewmen and planes. But there were still a few wounded Americans though and some of the bombers were in bad repair. Over France though, German fighters came up again, made everything and everybody as good as new.

>When the bombers got back to their base, the steel cylinders were taken from the racks and shipped back to the United States of America, where factories were operating night and day, dismantling the cylinders, separating the dangerous contents into minerals. Touchingly, it was mainly women who did this work. The minerals were then shipped to specialists in remote areas. It was their business to put them into the ground, to hide them cleverly, so they would never hurt anybody ever again.

Sci-fi or PTSD?
