Slaughterhouse

"Don't worry, it will never be bombed" (147). This is from a fake letter from Derby that he wrote in his head. I think that this is the writer's way of foreshadowing what will happen, but to the characters. The readers already know what will happen. But the characters who are going there are still clueless. In this letter, he is confident that this city will be kept safe. However, in just a few days he will be dead and the city will be gone.
