Yes it is. I would add the words "as interpreted by Kurt Vonnegut influenced by his personal beliefs"

I am afraid that too many people take Slaughterhouse Five and his descriptions of events and casualty totals as Gospel truth.

Many of KV`s assertions have been shown to have been, at best, misinterpretations and,at worst, downright lies.
