Description:Dead eye dick is a good summer read. The writing style easy to read yet witty and ironic. Life as a story ends when you reach your peak. Felix's story ended when he became CEO of NBC the rest of his life was an epilogue. Emma his high school sweet hearth story ended in high school, she kept living until she drank Drano. His moms story ends before he was born.
Midland city, a small Ohio town were everybody is fake which is ok as long as they don't venture out in the real world. Perhaps that is why it suffered the neutron bomb. Vonnegut points out that life is an overrated improbable mess and also raises questions of plutocracy in a light heart-ed manner.
