Kilgore Trout

In chapter five, we learn about the science fiction author, Kilgore Trout. A man, Eliot Rosewater, tells Billy about the author. People loved his ideas but not his books. To me, Trout is kind of Vonnegut in a way. They both write about science fiction and time travel. They also write about aliens as well. They both like to write about unsual topics and scenarios.
