Cat's Cradle Postmodernism

The article, “Postmodernism in Architecture,” states that Postmodern view recognizes that the past cannot be altered since it cannot really be destroyed, it must be revisited with "irony, not innocently." The novel, Cat's Cradle, is a novel that can be seen from a this similar view, and in my opinion, is to be considered as a postmodern piece of literature.Throughout the novel, Vonnegut creates this religion called Bokononism that is pretty much based off of lies. This religion is based upon the fact that nothing is true. Therefore, nothing can be altered or destroyed, because there is nothing there; there is no truth. Which is where the title, Cat's Cradle comes in. You can look and look for the cat and the cradle, but all you are going to find is a bunch of X's and holes. 
I don't really know much about architecture, but from what I have learned in the video from class, postmodern architects are creating new, original buildings that are different. It is going against traditions, or sometimes twisting them a little to create something new into the world of architecture. This is also similar with the world of literature. Books are being introduced, like Cat's Cradle for example, that bring new, fresh ideas that are considered to be wonderful. Postmodern architects are striving for new things, as are authors. 
Vonnegut introduces Bokononism, which seems very postmodern. Bokononism is the belief or representation that people are a product of their culture, or social norm. In the religion, he creates his own language with new words like karass, which is very new and different, very postmodern-like. In their society, everyone is secretly a Bokononist, or most of them at least. Some would say they’re restricted from believing anything else because of the social norm of that society. In the end, the people in San Lorenzo are influenced by their culture and this reflects a very postmodern viewpoint.
