Academy Award-nominated actor James Franco (The Interview, 127 Hours, Milk) performs Kurt Vonnegut's satirical classic SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE available exclusively from Audible today, November 3. Listeners can order the audiobook now at audible.com/vonnegut.

Earlier this year Audible released Breakfest of Champions, performed by John Malkovich, and other essential Vonnegut titles including Deadeye Dick, Bluebeard, Hocus Pocus, Palm Sunday and The Sirens of Titan to celebrate the visionary author's life's work. Other Vonnegut titles including Jailbird, Slapstick, Wampeters, Foma & Granfallons and Fates Worse Than Death have been released along with Franco's performance of SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE.

SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE is one of legendary author Kurt Vonnegut's most popular novels. Franco brilliantly brings to life the story of Billy Pilgrim, who becomes "unstuck in time" after he is captured by German soldiers during World War II.
