I really enjoyed reading The Following Story. It was a kind of surreal read as I did not know at first how to take the narration. Was Herman Mussert sleeping, dead, a figment of someone's imagination? I also found it very interesting that this book seemed to relate to all of the themes of the class, this may be because lately I find myself looking for these themes in everything I do and see. The most obvious of the themes so far in my reading is that of dolce domum. As Herman Mussert talks about his life you can tell that he wants to return to something familiar.
