Bienvenue dans le village de Niederkaltenkirchen, Bavière, pour une comédie policière haute en couleur. Le commissaire Franz Eberhofer, viré de Munich pour raisons disciplinaires, se la coulait douce dans sa bourgade natale : les patrouilles finissaient invariablement devant une bière chez Wolfi, en promenade avec Louis II, son chien, dans la boucherie de son copain Simmerl ou à table avec sa mémé sourde comme un pot.

Breakfast of Champions (1973) provides frantic, scattershot satire and a collage of Vonnegut's obsessions. His recurring cast of characters and American landscape was perhaps the most controversial of his canon; it was felt by many at the time to be a disappointing successor to Slaughterhouse-Five, which had made Vonnegut's literary reputation.

Pero él sobrevivió, y su vida fue contada por un periodista, hasta que se descubrió que había sido engañado. Que no era verdad, pero tampoco mentira, que su existencia se había construido, como tantas otras, con retazos de lo que puede saberse y lo que hay que ocultar.

Si encara no tens clar si ets pijo o no, aquest és el teu llibre; si ho tens clar, també.

Tenim tan poca idea dels pijos, del seu món i del seu modus vivendi que el Marc Giró s'ha vist en l'obligació d'escriure aquest nou llibre, desobeint el principi més bàsic de la vida regalada, que diu que el més important a la vida de tot pijo és no pencar mai, sota cap concepte, que això és cosa de les classes proletàries de la Lower-Diagonal.

Val a dir, en la nostra defensa, que avui, en temps de Zara, qualsevol persona per quatre duros pot vestir-se de pijo...

Perhaps the most autobiographical (and deliberately least disciplined) of Vonnegut's novels, Slapstick (1976) is in the form of a broken family odyssey and is surely a demonstration of its eponymous title. The story centers on brother and sister twins, children of Wilbur Swain, who are in sympathetic and (possibly) telepathic communication and who represent Vonnegut's relationship with his own sister who died young of cancer almost two decades before the book's publication.
