Cat's Cradle can most readily be described as a book about the end of the world, and Vonnegut tells this by using his cynical, yet comical ways.
Cat's Cradle revolves around the narrator, 'Jonah', and his adventures with his attempt to write a book about some Americans' reactions to the bombing of Hiroshima. Of course, things do not turn out the way he had expected they would, on account of his encounter with a small Caribbean island called San Lorenzo, and its inhabitants.Though its chapters are mostly only a page long, this doesn't break the flow, and leaves constant cliffhangers that are complimented by the utterly genius delivery.
