Fifth Assignment

1. The project of my novel that i think the author was trying to get across to me is that war is not glorious. War affects a person not only phsically but psychologically. War ruins a persons life and hurts families as well.

2. The main conflict in my novel is that the character Billy Pilgrim keeps going through flashbacks of his past and keeps claiming that he was abducted by aliens. So basically Billy is losing his scenility.

3. This problem attributes to the project because Billy was perfectly fine before the war. After he got out of the war was he started all the flashbacks and claiming that he had been abducted by aliens.

4. Other elements that attribute to the project is the symbol of the woman he met on Tralfamadore. The woman made Billy very happy and feel normal again, which he hasn't felt since he had left the war. Billy holds on to that impression of the woman because it's a symbol of him trying to reclaim what he once was before the war took his innocence.
