Billy Pilgrim doesn’t matter, but that doesn’t really bother him; he’s content to merely exist, to take things as they come, no matter how dire the circumstance may be at a given moment. While he’s never had an ounce of malice for anything in his life, Billy lives his life as a sort of punching bag for other individuals and even the universe itself.

Billy has become “unstuck in time,”  and he finds himself at the mercy of the ages, where one moment he may find himself in the midst of World War II and another places him in a zoo exhibit on the Tralfalmadoran’s home planet, with little warning between each jump. He accepts his fatalist “gift” gracefully.

With new perspectives on what it means to exist, Billy hopes to convey his wisdom on peace and life to anyone who will listen.
