Classic & Older Gothic

Mother Night

by Kurt Vonnegut

An American spy who posed as a Nazi propagandist during WWII now stands trial in Israel, forcing a reckoning with identity, complicity, and moral ambiguity. Vonnegut's darkly comic novel asks whether good intentions matter when actions serve evil. A devastating exploration of how easily we become what we pretend to be.
