I also the way time was presented in Slaughterhouse. Certain passages stuck with me, in particular the firebombing of Dresden scene, as a previous poster has said:
"The formation flew backwards over a German city that was in flames. The bombers opened their bomb bay doors, exerted a miraculous magnetism which shrunk the fires, gathered them into cylindrical steel containers, and lifted the containers into the bellies of the planes. When the bombers got back to their base, the steel cylinders were taken from the racks and shipped back to the United States, where factories were operating night and day, dismantling the cylinders, separating the dangerous contents into minerals. It was their business to put them into the ground, to hide them cleverly, so they would never hurt anybody ever again. And Hitler turned into a baby. Everybody turned into a baby, and all humanity, without exception, conspired biologically to produce two perfect people named Adam and Eve, he supposed."
