So It Goes

 This the first book that there is no close reading, this has me lost. I don’t know what to write about, my last blog I did not like at all because of it. I want this new blog to be much more invigorate. As I was reading a word that has come up often so far in the book has been, so it goes. I understand that this is a tradition from Tralfamadore when someone dies. Thought chapter three this word is used 7 times (pg 52, 53, 54, 65, 65, 68, 69). The funniest thing is that you can see the lap’s time between the pages (54-65) when he is traveling through time. What irritates me is that this words makes him sound detachment and with a huge lack of feelings towards people. Since the beginning of the book I have asked myself about the sanity of this man and now I can see that we was completely utterly damaged from the war, and I think of the time traveling seeing deaths including this own. Billy seems so lifeless in his actions that, I guess that makes him cold hearted towards other people outcome and his own, which makes me pity him so much because a man with out feeling has yet to explore life.
