The Cat's Cradle is a satirical postmodern novel, with elements of science fiction, by the American writer Kurt Vonnegut.
Vonnegut's fourth novel, first published in 1963, in which the author examines key issues of science, technology, the purpose of religion, and the arms race, often using black humor.
Upton Sinclair sharply criticizes the relationship between art and capital throughout history. He shows how money and power have always influenced literature, painting, and music, and how great artists were often prisoners of the "golden chain."
