Characters

The characters in Breakfast of Champions are puppets, and Vonnequt makes sure that his reader is aware of their artificiality. Like Robbe-Grillet, Vonnegut believes that the novel of character is dead, so Breakfast of Champions is filled with cartoon figures who can be adequately described with a single identifying phrase, but Vonnegut also fears that actual human beings are little more than robots leading determined existences. This depressing view of character is tempered in the novel by the minimalist painter Rabo Karabekian. In defense of his abstract painting The Temptation of Saint Anthony, Karabekian passionately argues that "our awareness is all that is alive and maybe sacred in any of us. Everything else about us is dead machinery."

Jack, you're up to something, I know that.
Where ever you are I'll be reading you and if you somehow manage to elude me, I'll try my mightiest to find you
in order to keep reading and writing with you.

Some say it's summertime out here.
I noticed a lot of rain and I have warm socks on.

I think I have only the one character, but she does have many different identities in herself or maybe it's mood swings. To me, it's all the women in my head and a young child-self, too.

You keep introducing all of her to all of yours, I'm fascinated. :P
`Do you know, I was so angry, Kitty,' Alice went on...`when I saw all the mischief you had been doing, I was very nearly opening the window, and putting you out into the snow! And you'd have deserved it, you
little mischievous darling!

You ever read Flatland?

Software agent, I need to google that

trying to do hypermedia, I don't know how much time you got to give it in the good old summer time, but I am put your one in my focus right now.

Flatland, was that Lewis Carroll

I can't remember something about Victorian morals? Or is it a modern book,

I am blowing my mind on HyperLand right now, if you have time to check it out I think you would be delighted with it too
