Recensione:
"Vonnegut faces up to the less glamorous phenomenon of human mediocrity in this sharp, hilarious, boundlessly humane story. It taught me about compassion and a few things about writing good dialogue" (Michel Faber Glasgow Herald)
"Rumbustious stuff... There may be greater novelists than Vonnegut, but there can be a few, if any, with as much good humour and generosity" (Guardian)
"Filled with irony and black humour and a woozy bonhomie" (Sunday Times)
"Wild hilarity" (Sunday Telegraph)
"Extremely funny" (Observer)
