My Slaughterhouse

In Slaughterhouse Five there was many examples of post modernism. When Vonnegut put himself in the book that was example of breaking the fourth wall because not many other authors put themselves in their stories. It's like the Marvel movies when Stan Lee puts himself in every the movie. Another example is when Billy gets unstuck in time, post modernism doesn't have a time frame so the story isn't very structured consistently when it comes to time. Post modernism also shows unusual humor at times were you would think it would be serious or tragic.
