Slaughterhouse Five Questions and Comments

I encourage you all to post questions, insights, and connections regarding Vonnegut's novel. Please remember to adhere to rules of appropriate academic analytical commentary. This is a forum for literary investigation and discovery! I will start the ball rolling with the first question:
What do you think might be significant about the protagonist's name? Discuss.
