Traumatized by the bombing of Dresden at the time he had been imprisoned, Pilgrim drifts through all events and history, sometimes deeply implicated, sometimes a witness. He is surrounded by Vonnegut's usual large cast of continuing characters (notably here the hack science fiction writer Kilgore Trout and the alien Tralfamadorians, who oversee his life and remind him constantly that there is no causation, no order, no motive to existence).

Un "divertissement", un guizzo anarchico dell'intelligenza. È così che si possono definire queste pagine nelle quali Cipolla abbandona gli austeri panni dello studioso e, giocando sul filo del paradosso e dell'assurdo, costruisce due brevi saggi: il primo, una ilare parodia della storia economica e sociale del Medioevo; il secondo, una sorta di scherzosa teoria generale della stupidità umana.

Partiendo desde la idea de que todo es inciatico, Alejandro Jodorowsky nos presenta un libro interpretativo que si bien podría ser de los sueños, se acerca al lenguaje coloquial de los chistes desde un punto de vista filosófico zen. Los chistes nos muestran una satirización de la realidad, una manera de ver a lo cotidiano como algo tan absurdo y real, algo que le podría suceder hasta al más proclive de los seres sin encontrar un razón o un sentido más que algo que paso.

Manual de etiqueta para el mexicano de hoy—o para el audaz viajero—, Viaje al centro de mi tierra lo mismo explora conductas sociales (los microbuses como armas de destrucción masiva, los desfiguros de la política) que el albur, las piruetas y los retortijones de las hablas nacionales; va de los bajos fondos de la nota roja (un futbolista baleado en un bar-bar, el asesinato de dos mini luchadores a manos de unas sexoservidoras) a la épica batalla contra el virus de la influenza.

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.

«Deme mis pastillas de la tensión, esas que son blancas y redondas». «¿Usted cree que si me tomo una copita de orujo con estas píldoras tendré muchos efectos perversos?». «Anda bonita, si no tienes ningún termómetro empezado sácame uno nuevo y de aquí a un rato te lo devuelvo impecable».

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.

Dice llamarse Gregori Makarov, haber tocado el acordeón siendo niño ante Stalin y vivir una imposible historia de amor que le llevó a ser internado en el terrible campo de trabajo del Kolimá, uno de los lugares más lejanos e inhóspitos de Siberia, de donde no se salía vivo. 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.
