The second reason I liked this book is because of the perspective it is told from. It is told in third person and an unknown narrator is pondering what astronauts dream of and creating possible dreams. Then the perspective shifts and although it is still told in third person, you get to see what the astronauts are really dreaming of.
I think the main message of this story is abut how no matter where you go in life or how far away from home you go you will always be reminiscent of your home and where you came from. You could be the most successful person in the world but you will never forget your home and your roots. ( )
