Dynamic Character- Chapter 6

Starting in last chapter, readers really began to see Billy Pilgrim's character and personality change. In the way he has began to open up about his knowledge of time, he is becoming someone who wants to change the world rather than just someone who merely wants to survive the war and go home. At this point, he isn't even scared when Lazzaro begins to threaten him. This is most likely because the readers learned that "He [Billy] has seen his own death many times" (141). He described his death as someone shooting him in 1976 when he is giving a huge speech (again, more dynamic change where he is becoming confident) in Chicago at, presumably, Wrigley Field. These changes are allowing him to become more comfortable in whatever time is he currently living in, and giving him the ability to live stress-free in the war, not afraid of death.
