I already held Vonnegut in very high regard after Slaughterhouse 5. This book is in a similar vein but much funnier because it lacks the grim nature of WW2. Vonnegut is one of the funniest authors I've ever read. The way he deconstructs mundane human concepts is masterful and hilarious. Social satire at its best.
Malkovich's narration was excellent. One thing to note is that the book has a lot of funny drawings. On audio, those drawings are described verbally, which is not ideal but works well enough if you find and look for those drawings separately.
