Book: Cliffsnotes Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-five 'Slaughterhouse-Five' is a work of literary fiction that combines historical, sociological, psychological, science-fiction, and biographical elements. Unlike novels based on traditional form. Vonnetgut's novel does not fit a model that stresses plot, character conflict, and climax.
An odd book in that it mixes elements of science fiction with psychological analysis, Slaughterhouse-Five tells the story of Billy Pilgrim, a GI prisoner of war. He time-travels and wanders through a mysterious ether where spatial-temporal relationships are at odds with what we accept as reality.
