I've only read "A man without a country". It was an awesome book. Vonnegut had a way of making his readers
better
people. Reading of his past struggles and comparing it to his present is hilarious. Compare getting blown up by bombs during WWII to how he has a crush on one of the secretaries at an office he frequently visits (as an old man). He makes life seem short and at the same time rich and full of exquisite memories. By the end of the book he reminds us to be kind. Only a great person would help other be great. R.I.P.
