Not to be that guy, but it's "Welcome to the Monkey House."
Also, I agree it's great, but folks should know it is a collection of short stories.

Sorry, old brain. I read that as a teenager

No worries at all. Old brain here, too. Also . . . hm. I've been going back to Vonnegut a bit in my senescence. Just re-read Sirens of Titan and Galapagos a couple of months ago. Maybe it's time to give Welcome to the Monkey House another look. It's only been about 45 years. Cheers and good luck out there.

Holds many of my favorite short stories, but one in particular gets me every time. "The Manned Missiles"

Damn. I had forgotten that one. Epistolary, right? I think I need to go back to that book. I also think I have a copy of it here somewhere . . . thanks for the reminder and best of luck out there.

Yes, an American father and Russian father writing back and forth. Incredible.
