Matadouro Cinco ou A Cruzada das Criancas. Uma danca de servico com a morte... [Slaughterhouse Five]

Lisbao, [Portugal]: Bertrand Editora, 2011. Softcover. Fine/Fine. First Portuguese language edition (published in Portugal) of *Slaughterhouse Five*. Text in Portuguese. Translated by Rosa Amorim. 199pp. Pictorial wrappers. A fine copy with publisher's printed wrap-around band (also fine). A nice copy of the author's best-known title, a splendid blend of history, humor, and fantasy in the story of optometrist Billy Pilgrim, survivor of the firebombing of Dresden, unstuck in time and living an alternate life on the planet Tralfamadore. Basis for George Roy Hill's 1972 film that managed to make a good movie out of a virtually unfilmable novel. Uncommon; *OCLC* locates only one holding [Indiana]. Also published in Brazil, in 2005, in a Portuguese-language edition translated by Cassia Zanon. (Inventory #: 523538)
