Abstract or Introduction

Kurt Vonnegut’s Mother Night was one of the two great competing postmodern analyses of the war against totalitarianism. Vonnegut saw World War II as an absurd and tragic consequence of mass schizophrenia in Nazi Germany, and the book’s main character epitomizes and enables this cultural flaw.
