moods conclusion
So I think Hoffmann realizes and signifies that it is a conclusion by the first sentence saying "we'd like to leave our readers with..." he knows he is ending the book however he ends it with yet another unfinished story. He relates his sections to the criminal code in the sense that he has many unfinished stories and thoughts. However there are no laws in reading and he can finish or not finish stories as he pleases. He then reflects on another woman and how he once knew everything about her and he cared about her but that is about all he writes about her and then the rest is up to our interpretation. He says "thats how much care we took with her character but if we were to do that now, our readers would sue for excessive particularity."So I think he is arguing in writing maybe nothing is every perfect or exactly how everyone wants it, you do too little and your criticized and you do too much and you're also criticized. the last section finishes the book offering the readers a coffee mug with the words Good Morning written on it, and I'm not sure what he means by saying this but he also offers readers a beautiful tale, a short story about God and how amazing he is but perhaps it's not so beautiful because he reflects how he is lonely. I think Hoffmann thrives off his randomness and when you truly spend time analyzing his stories you figure out some important and influential stories.
