People like to rag on him around here, and I understand where they come from, but I love the guy. I've read only a few of his works, but I thoroughly enjoyed all of them, maybe Slaughterhouse 5 the least (gasp)

For the most part, he's a teller of jokes. I don't think he had any delusions as to his place in the literary world. He loved people, he loved to laugh, and he saw his literature as a way to connect with people in a world that seems entirely mad but maybe not beyond repair. I'm sure he would have been a good guy to go to the pub with.
