Chapter 6 Imagery

     "Billy sat up in bed. He had no idea what year it was or what planet he was on. Whatever the planets name was, it was cold. But it wasn't the cold that awakened Billy. It was animal magnetism which was making him shiver and itch. It gave him profound aches in his musculature, as though he had been exercising hard."
      Throughout this paragraph of Chapter 6, the reader, through Vonneguts use of imagery, was really able to feel as Billy Pilgrim did. When Vonnegut talked about Billy not knowing where he was or what planet he was one, the reader really began to understand how Billy's mind was processing at the time. Also, when he was describing how the planet was cold, Vonnegut allowed the reader to see the atmosphere and really be able to feel of the scene. Another part of the quote that was well described was when Vonnegut spoke of the animal magnetism that was making him shiver and itch. During that sentence, we learn about what Billy was feeling externally. And finally when he began to describe his achy muscles, the reader was fully able to see the wholeness of the character of Billy Pilgrim.
     Throughout this part of the chapter, Vonnegut did an excellent job in fully describing the character of Billy Pilrgim. The reader was able to really picture what Billy Pilgrim looked like throughout  the entire scene. Through Vonnegut's use of imagery, the reader was able to make mental pictures of the scene. Vonneguts use of imagery throughout the beginning of the chapter really gave the reader a glimpse into the real character of Billy Pilgrim.
