Time, Time, Time..

 I keep reading Slaughter House-Five, and every time the Trafalmadorian believes come up, they always stun me. In the end of Chapter 4 there’s a phrase that really caught my eye. "All time is all time. It does not change. It does not lend itself to warnings or explanations." 

In this quote really we can see the main thing Trafalmadorians do, see in all directions and all periods of time. The time in Tralfamadore is much different than earth. In Trafalmadore it might look like a long period of time, while it might be a small time period in Earth. Even though this explanation of time is mentions in Chapter 2, it is manifested through the whole book. The way that Vonnegut was trying to express his feeling of life and war in the book is through time.

All the ideas of the Trafalmadorians really resembles to the novel also movie, The Time Travelers Wife. In this novel we are also confronted with a controversy of time. The main character is a man that has a genetic disorder, this makes him time travel unpredictably. In these journeys he has he dangerous experiences. This reminds me of Slaughter House-Five because of the dilemma with time.
