God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater: Or Pearls Before Swine

In this satirical masterpiece, Kurt Vonnegut examines the absurdities of wealth, greed, and human compassion through the story of Eliot Rosewater, a benevolent millionaire who decides to dedicate his fortune to helping the downtrodden citizens of a small Indiana town. As Eliot's eccentric behavior alarms his family and prompts a scheming lawyer to challenge his mental competence, Vonnegut explores themes of generosity, morality, and the flawed nature of modern society. Equal parts humorous and profound, God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater is a biting commentary on capitalism and the human condition.
