Slaughterhouse seemed to cover every thematic topic I could
think of- except for regrets. So, yet
again, I will revert to the question DOES Billy regret? The answer, in my opinion, is no. He comes off as aloof and in a way
unapologetic. He seems to think a bit
more as the Tralfalmadorians do- that life just happens. We can’t control it. We have no free will, and it’s out of our
hands. So why would there be any
regret? This is an extremely short blog
post, but I feel it goes along with the message that there’s no point to dwell
on something that has no answer. It just
simply is. Billy Pilgrim does not
regret.
