Harrison Bergeron is a brilliant short story that I had read before. There were a few other high points in this collection. Some of the others were a bit dull, and the title story was a bit problematic. I love Vonnegut, but other than a few high points, this isn't his best work. ( ) I used to really love Kurt Vonnegut, and I suspect he was a pretty cool guy (based on some stuff I heard about him), but it feels like this collection aged badly. Perhaps because Welcome to the Monkey House is so problematic. And yet there's Miss Temptation, which is so much more sympathetic...and I think the Hyannis Port Story is funny, and so is the Euphio Question, and The Foster Portfolio and Go Back to your Precious Wife and Son. The Manned Missiles broke my heart, as did All the King's Horses. But now, as an adult, I despise Harrison Bergeron, and I can't tell you why, it just feels so dumb when I read it now. It's too over the top. But somehow Who Am I This Time? isn't. I don't know. Let's just leave it at the Barnhouse Effect, and go home. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
