When the world below me cowers

-to the planets up above,

I’ll find faith in the unrest

Slaughterhouse V 

by Darío Mekler

“The most important thing I learnt on Tralfamadore was that when a person dies he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past, so it is very silly for people to cry at his funeral. All moments, past, present, and future, always have existed, always will exist. The Tralfamadorians can look at all the different moments just the way we can look at a stretch of the Rocky Mountains, for instance. They can see how permanent all the moments are, and they can look at any moment that interests them. It is an illusion we have here on Earth that one moment follows another one, like beads on a string, and that once a moment is gone it is gone forever. When any Tralfamadorian sees a corpse, all he thinks is that the dead person is in a bad condition in that particular moment, but that the same person is just fine in plenty of other moments.”

And Lot's wife, of course, was told not to look back where all those people and their homes had been. But she did look back, and I love her for that, because it was so human. So she was turned into a pillar of salt. So it goes.

Kurt Vonnegut, from Slaughterhouse 5 (Delacourt 1969)

[holishkes]

A half baked thought about sci fi, absurdism, trauma, and ways of expressing pain through art:

Slaughterhouse 5 is about the huge, incomprehensible trauma of an exceptionally horrific and violent experience, personally and collectively, and it is being explored through absurdist science fiction. Everything Everywhere All At Once is about the ongoing, mundane trauma of the regular world when you do not have a typical brain, and it is also explored through absurdist science fiction, but the stakes are flipped; the war does not matter, because the things that matter the most are the little routine parts of our lives that add up into loss and heartbreak and joy and love.

There are almost no characters in this story, and almost no dramatic confrontations, because most of the people in it are so sick and so much the listless playthings of enormous forces.

“How nice - to feel nothing, and still get full credit for being alive” -Kurt Vonnegut honestly f#cking slaps I think about it constantly

Slaughterhouse Five is a lot sadder when you reread it and realize Billy Pilgrim is just Kurt Vonnegut in a coat. What I mean by this of course is that in the very first chapter, the introduction really, you notice things. Most of Billy's stories are just Vonnegut's reworded tales, most of the things Billy feels are just Vonnegut's thoughts. It's why Slaughterhouse Five is so good, it is tales of war from someone who went to war about someone who went to war. There is no glamorization, war isn't romanticized. It's ugly and true.
