评分通常对这部书的评论是,在科幻小说的外壳中讽刺现实。作者被归为黑色幽默一类的。《猫的摇篮》是他的代表作之一。 书名“猫的摇篮”,是一种绳圈游戏(就是小时候玩的挑花线、挑绳)里的一种样式。 小说里有几个很经典的角色。 科学家霍尼克尔:一个科研怪才,...

Will his last, fatal gift to humankind bring about the end that, for all of us, is nigh? Told with deadpan humour and bitter irony, Kurt Vonnegut's cult tale of global apocalypse preys on our deepest fears of witnessing the end and, worse still, surviving it...

评分◎冯古内特极其善于用幽默消解、讽刺愚蠢的事,这种幽默是极其聪明的,相比于我这种不入流的写作者,他不会用明晃晃的观点刺伤你,他仿佛随意笑着扔了几颗豆子,然后豆子落地拔起入云的藤蔓,枝叉上穿满了愚蠢的心。
评分Man is vile, and man makes nothing worth making, knows nothing worth knowing.
