Ch1: The Vonnegut Preface Post 1

For Chapter 1, which I like to call "The Vonnegut Preface" because it doesn't seem that much like part of the story, the literary term I chose was anthropomorphism. Anthropomorphism is seen when Vonnegut says, "And I let the dog out, or I let him in, and we talk some." Vonnegut and his dog talk because dogs can do that. Honestly, the purpose this quote seems to have is to prove that Vonnegut is a normal person.  It's just the first chapter so I can't go too deep on this but that is what the quote seems to do.
