During the middle of the 20th century Kurt Vonnegut, his society as well as the entire humanity faced a lot of tensions and crises due to World Wars and other political issues. The advancement of science, as well as technology, brought a lot of changes in the existing world views; human existence and the meaning of life were seriously questioned and asked by many writers and thinkers. By that time many writers, architects, and designers started to bring new forms and styles in their works. Kurt Vonnegut has given great contributions to American novels as well as to postmodernism. He was a great fictional writer in modern times. His writings were related to human reality, feelings, experiences with certain postmodern elements. In this article, I focus on the postmodern fictional writings of Vonnegut, his writing career, major themes, styles, etc. He has written almost 150 works among them 14 are fictional novels. I have taken 3 major works; Player Piano, Cat's Cradle and Slaughterhouse-Five and discussing the postmodern approach of these fictional works.
