Wait. Is Trout or Hoover the protagonist of Breakfast of Champions?

I AM. IT KEEPS SWITCHING.
IS IT SOME SORT OF DUEL PROTAGONIST SITUATION OR WHAT?

>> No.1824474

The protagonist is always Kurt Vonnegut.

I agree with this, at least for Breakfast. Not only is Vonnegut actually in the book, but Trout just screams author avatar.

Surely Vonnegut is not the protagonist of Deadeye Dick, though?

In answer to your question, OP, out of your choices, Trout. Vonnegut is the real answer, though.

Both of them. I could see an argument for the author himself being a third protagonist.
