SCHLACHTOF ZWEI

In chapter 2 of Slaughter house 5 the author talks about how Billy Pilgrim was in a fatal plane crash in which he was the only survivor.  Billy Pilgrim started going kind of crazy, it was probably the only way he could cope with things. He started telling everyone how he was abducted by aliens and they took him to their planet Tralfamadore.  Everyone wanted to know why he didn't tell them these stories right after they happened and his only response is because, "..it was too soon."  Billy goes back and forth through different times of his life a lot.  At the end of the chapter Billy time shifts back to being captured by Germans.  I have noticed that the author puts "So it goes" after every bad event.
