Another prime example of Indirect Characterization in Slaughterhouse-Five is Billy's experience after his involvement in an airplane crash. Vonnegut describes Billy, after the crash, by saying, "When Billy finally got home to Illium after the airplane crash, he was quiet for a while. . . He didn't resume practice" (Vonnegut 25). This description of Billy's situation shows the crash deeply effected his mind and even scared him. Because of this crash, Billy will not be the same mentally or emotionally.
Chapter Two was confusing, but by the end of the chapter, it made sense. It was very interesting in its structure, and the events that took place throughout the chapter.
