Don't get me wrong, I enjoy Vonnegut. I was just trying to portray the mentality of the typical Vonnegut reader and I threw the "refuse to read actual literature" phrase in there to emphasize that they only read him because he is entertaining.

Vonnegut seems like a classic case of someone who is both overrated and underrated. Overrated by people who aren't really that well-read and underrated by snobs who can't see that there's merit to his works and who confuse his lucid prose style for ''simpleness.''

Vonnegut reminds me of Marcel Duchamp. He knows what he's doing and isn't going to take it too seriously. They both were able to create concepts that were consistent to their own work. They knew what they were doing inside their own medium. But they never took it too seriously.
