Yes, there is some brief nudity, but nothing too horrible. From what I remember the only scenes with nudity is when Montana Wildhack first arrives on Tralfamadore (you see her breasts) and when the American troops are changing (you only see their naked backs).

The novel is called "Slaughterhouse-Five" and it follows the experiences of Billy Pilgrim, who becomes "unstuck in time" and experiences various moments of his life, including his time as a soldier in World War II and his encounters with aliens on the planet Tralfamadore.

It is Vonnegut's way of dealing with the catastrophe of the fire-bombing of Dresden. It was a massacre, which he cannot formally explain, so his character, Pilgrim, becomes "unstuck in time" because he makes up a world (Tralfamadore) to deal with his condition of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. He becomes unstuck in time because he learns of the Tralfamadorian concept of time; a four dimensional outlook, where they are never living in the moment, but in the past, present and future. Billy knows the playout of his life before he even dies, i.e. (knows of Lazarro's assassination order which is in the future) Billy is uncontrollably time-traveling through his life where he relives experiences, in which he has no control of. Science fiction at its best.
