Slaughterhouse-Five: Billy and God (3)

Billy is such a silly man: he keeps jumping from the past to the present like an ADHD goat. Reading this chapter you can really realize how crazy and unstable he is and how it has taking him so long (little over half his life) to realize he has no control on his future. It seems like the fact that he grew up being a weakling really affected him and ended up reflecting on his personality. Although, it is perfectly understandable that he is having trouble, war must've affected him more than it would any other man, any other strong man. I feel like I can trust the events, because most likely it did happen that way, but I'm not sure how right Billy is when it comes to his view on such events. I don't feel like i can trust him, so I better just make an opinion of my own.
This book is crazy, not a typical one at all, but I'm starting to catch on the rhythm of things and beginning to understand them. That's good news.

BTW: I kinda feel like Billy is similar to that one character in lost... you know, the one with the beard? Too bad I cant remember his name.
