Past, Present, Future; chpt 3 prompt #6

I think as the book continues, there will be more stories about the war and Billy's experiences in Germany. He will constantly go back and forth between the present and the past. He frequently closes his eyes and goes back in time to recall certain experiences. "Somewhere in there was Christmas. Billy Pilgrim nestled like a spoon with the hobo on Christmas night, and he fell asleep, ad he traveled in time t 1967 again--to the night he was kidnapped by a flying saucer from Tralfamadore. " (pg 71) This continues to happen and I think it will persist throughout the entire story and through this he tells about what happened and what is happening in his life. It is almost like a puzzle that the reader as to put together as the book goes along. I'm interested to see what happens next with him and Roland Weary as their train arrives.

I found this article discussing how this form of writing is used and i thought it is interesting to have a little insight as to how it is used and why.
