Hoffman is random on pg 163 because he switches topics taking about a lake with translucent fishes to a frozen lake in Siberia to a Russian man he knew that while he walked his dog and someone said good morning he would respond with wolking. Hoffman makes it hard to follow what his ideas are because they are all over the place it seams like he it’s thinking about other things while he writers about one almost like a non finished idea he has. He starts with the lake in Russia and remembers the Russian man with the dog which changes the topic of the the while chapter. This book seams like Hoffman just writes down his thoughts on paper and doesn’t explain them to the reader as if we should decode his meanings.
The conclusion to Hoffman book moods seams like random thoughts. Hoffman talks about a woman who can describe her hair to god. He talks about god and uses the image of an old autistic man to describe how he hears his names but there is only an echo when he utters them. It seams like Hoffman compares god mind as alone because no one is with him. I feel like the ending of this book sums up the ideas of Hoffman which is looking for something that isn’t there. Hoffman idea is if he didn’t write the book it wouldn’t be there for use to read .
