The first-ever graphic novel adaptation of Kurt Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-Five, an American classic, is one of the world’s great anti-war books.



An American classic and one of the world’s seminal antiwar books, Kurt Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-Five is faithfully presented in graphic novel form for the first time from Eisner Award-winning writer Ryan North (How to Invent Everything: A Survival Guide for the Stranded Time Traveler) and Eisner Award-nominated artist Albert Monteys (Universe!).



Listen: Billy Pilgrim has...


...read Kilgore Trout


...opened a successful optometry business


...built a loving family


...witnessed the firebombing of Dresden


...traveled to the planet Tralfamadore


...met Kurt Vonnegut


...come unstuck in time.



Billy Pilgrim’s journey is at once a farcical look at the horror and tragedy of war where children are placed on the frontlines and die (so it goes), and a moving examination of what it means to be fallibly human.

Preface. Character list. “Billy’s Timeline.” Full-color illustrations.
