"Mother Night," by Kurt Vonnegut

For our final selection of the poll, we'll go back to the 60s! Kurt Vonnegut's humor is clever and piercing in this novel about pretense, agency and propaganda.

From Goodreads:
Mother Night is a daring challenge to our moral sense. American Howard W. Campbell, Jr., a spy during World War II, is now on trial in Israel as a Nazi war criminal. But is he really guilty? In this brilliant book rife with true gallows humor, Vonnegut turns black and white into a chilling shade of gray with a verdict that will haunt us all.
