Fifty years ago................................
At the book store..............................................................
All this happened, more or less. The war parts, anyway, are pretty much true. One guy I knew really was shot in Dresden for taking a teapot that wasn't his. Another guy I knew really did threaten to have his personal enemies killed by hired gunmen after the war. And so on. I've changed all the names.
-Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., this being the opening paragraph from Slaughterhouse-Five
