In celebration of Kurt Vonnegut's 100th birthday on November 11, Pitkin County Library presents a series of events to honor the late, great American novelist.
Slaughterhouse-Five Book Club Discussion | Wednesday, November 16, 5:30-6:30pm
Join us for a discussion of Vonnegut's seminal work, Slaughterhouse-Five. Published in 1969 to critical acclaim, Slaughterhouse-Five is part semi-autobiographical war story and part science fiction, centered around Billy Pilgrim's time as a prisoner of war in WWII Germany, and later, his life as he becomes "unstuck in time," traveling between the past, present, and future.
REGISTER HERE to receive your copy of Slaughterhouse-Five in advance of the book club discussion on Wednesday, Nov. 16 at 5:30pm.
