BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS

 Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS. Delta, 1973.

Yes, wonderful. A novel of ideas told by three crazy men. The anonymous author. His creation, Kilgore Trout. And his other creation, Dwayne Hoover. And about the chemical imbalances and hidden growths which cause mayhem, prejudice, violence, and self-destruction in a soulless society..
