Breakfast of Champions Novel Response

            
            
            
            
            
             Well, to start it off, this is a great book that questions the way people are supposed to act, and what a reader's elders have taught one about the way people should also think. As the book starts off, is says this, "This is a tale of a meeting of two lonesome, skinny fairly old white men on a planet which was dying fast." These characters are Kilgore Trout and Dwayne Hoover. Kilgore Trout was a science fiction novelist that was a nobody to put in easy to understand terms. Dwayne Hoover is a Pontiac dealer, right on the verge of going insane. In this novel, it has flashbacks, and present situations that the characters are introduced to. This book kind of skips back and forth from character to character, telling what is going on. Not until the very end of the book do the characters meet, and does the book come to a great ending. Really, this book is a fictional book in a non-fictional world, filled with a whole bunch of real life situations; it is what road these characters take and how they handle these problems is what makes this book so interesting. .

             A reader would react to this book in many different ways. If one likes books such as The Great Gatsby, or The Adventures of Huck Finn, then one might not enjoy this book so. This book is a book that a reader could compare to a novel such as The Corrections. I personally liked this book a lot. One might say that if you have read the book, Slaughter House Five, by Kurt Vonnegut, then you would definitely like this book. I really enjoyed the insanity that the characters produce, and the situations that they have to face everyday, and all daylong. I absolutely love the writing style that the author chooses for this book. I just like how he switches from one character to another, and how he puts, well, for example, there will be a character that say Dwayne will meet, or have some kind of occurrence with, that Kilgore Trout will also, later in the book meet.
