Cat’s Cradle
Kurt Vonnegut’s “Cat’s Cradle” is a darkly humorous masterpiece that left me pondering long after I turned the last page. Through the eyes of John, our hapless narrator, we’re taken on a wild ride exploring science, religion, and the absurdity of human existence. Vonnegut’s razor-sharp wit cuts through heavy themes with ease, making you laugh and think in equal measure. I found myself oddly comforted by the book’s nihilistic worldview, wrapped in a story so bizarre it could only be true.
