The Good: I don't usually laugh when I'm reading, but I found this book hilarious. The protagonist is actually portrayed realistically and I sympathized with him. He is an obese, rich likeable Russian Jew who is a nave but at times insightful.The Bad: Story dragged on. It needed to be at least 100 pages shorter. Yes, it was interesting and funny but enough is enough.The Ugly: True to its title it got ridiculously absurd.I recommend it for its creativity and humor. It is also well written. If you like Vonnegut, you will probably enjoy this.
