- The influence of Vonnegut’s didactic purpose of writing on the treatment of theme and structure in Slaughterhouse-Five is investigated in this study. The following elements of structure are studied: point of view, the treatment of time, characterization, the use of other sources, and imagery. These are constantly related to the novel’s themes, such as war, cruelty, death, time, innocence, survival, free will, fantasy and regeneration. Since Vonnegut himself survived the Dresden bombings during World War Two, his novel is very personal, which is particularly reflected in his point-of-view technique, the subject of Chapter One. Vonnegut creates double narrators in Slaughterhouse-Five : a personal one, including authorial intrusions, and an impersonal one. This division is a direct reflection of the dichotomy between reality and fantasy that prevails in the novel. In Chapter Two, Vonnegut’s treatment of time is demonstrated to be a process of spatialization. Structurally, this means a fragmented narrative split into several time levels that chiefly form what the author calls his ”telegraphic schizophrenic" style. Thematically, the protagonist comes "unstuck" in time, thus succeeding in confronting an absurd world and finally transcending death. Vonnegut uses the depiction of character mainly to express ideas and to reinforce themes, since he regards his characters as "bugs in amber," involuntarily stuck, excepting their capacity for fantasy. To facilitate the reader’s recognition of these sketchy characters, Vonnegut has equipped them with marks of recognition, often repeated, and names that provide clues to their personalities. All characters are shown to be isolated and lonely, except on Tralfamadore where a dream woi;ld exists. In the fourth chapter, Vonnegut’s use of other sources is examined. His carefully chosen quotations fall into two groups: first, historical sources that verify facts, such as the Dresden catastrophy; second, fictional sources that stimulate the human imagination, which turns out to be the protagonist's means of survival. Finally, imagery in Slaughterhouse-Five, studied in Chapter Five, is found to be used for enrichment of a style otherwise characterized by great economy. Much of the imagery strikes a humorous tone. A simple, quotidian vocabulary is developed. War imagery is used to deglorify war. Animal imagery is invoked to ridicule and to show man’s true place in the universe. Several oxymora further reinforce the incongruity prevailing in the Vonnegutian world. The negative effect of imagery is also found in symbols pertaining to Billy’s life situation. As a contrast, however, there are also positive symbols emphasizing nature’s annual cycle of rebirth signifying hope and regeneration. Many of the stylistic elements studied reveal that Vonnegut has chosen thematic and structural solutions that make his novel accessible to a large reading audience. The fragmented, at times circular, structure of Slaughterhouse-Five is indeed a "dance with death." In a thematic sense, death is the writer’s own muse that he must dutifully dance with in order to create his work of art. Slaughterhouse-Five is not only Vonnegut’s account of his own war experience but also a statement on the human condition.

- The second volume in the acclaimed Emperor series, in which Conn Iggulden brilliantly interweaves history and adventure to recreate the astonishing life of Julius Caesar -- an epic tale of ambition and rivalry, bravery and betrayal, from an outstanding new voice in historical fiction. The young Caesar must overcome enemies on land and at sea to become a battle-hardened leader -- in the spectacular new novel from the bestselling author of The Gates of Rome. Forced to flee Rome, Julius Caesar is serving on board a war galley in the dangerous waters of the Mediterranean and rapidly gaining a fearsome reputation. But no sooner has he had a memorable victory than his ship is captured by pirates and he is held to ransom. Abandoned on the north African coast after hard months of captivity, he begins to gather a group of recruits that he will eventually forge into a unit powerful enough to gain vengeance on his captors and to suppress a new uprising in Greece. Returning to Rome as a hero -- and as an increasingly dangerous problem for his enemies -- Caesar is reunited with his boyhood companion Brutus. But soon the friends are called upon to fight as they have never fought before, when a new crisis threatens to overwhelm the city -- in the form of a rebellious gladiator named Spartacus...

- Early one morning Guido Brunetti, commissario of the Venetian police, confronts a grisly sight when the body of a young man is fished out of the fetid Venetian canal. All the clues point to a violent mugging, but for Brunetti robbery seems altogether too convenient a motive. Then something very incriminating is discovered in the dead man's flat, something which points to the existence of a high level cabal - and Brunetti becomes convinced that somebody, somewhere, is taking great pains to provide a ready-made solution to the crime...In the second of Donna Leon's award-winning Commissario Brunetti novels, Brunetti is as fallibly human - and Venice as mysteriously beautiful - as Donna Leon's many loyal readers have become to expect.
