"That was I. That was me. That was the author of this book." (pg. 125)

I am definitely enjoying the style of Vonnegut's writing. It is very entertaining and easy to read. These types of passages in which he interjects himself into the story make the story seem as if it actually happened. His frankness and dry humor make readers think not only about the story, but about the meanings behind the story. From the very beginning, Vonnegut said that this book was an anti-war book. This theme is echoed throughout the story.
