Correct Transcript:
Today we tell about Kurt Vonnegut, a writer, and thinker who shook up the country with his unusual writing style and subjects. He helped energize huge numbers of young people to protest the Vietnam War and to always question the powers that be. It took Kurt Vonnegut about twenty-five years to write his most famous book, "Slaughterhouse-Five." It was published in nineteen sixty-nine. The book remains required reading in high school and college English classes across the country. It includes this description of the fire-bombing of Dresden, Germany, by Allied forces during World War Two, as witnessed by a soldier named Billy Pilgrim.
