The Last Paragraph Reply - Jules

For the first part of the monologue Tom is saying that he is like his father, you know, leaving the family and everything. He is also saying that everywhere he is, things remind him of what he left behind, especially Laura. If glass catches his eye, he thinks of Laura.  I don't believe that he wants to think of them though, I believe that he is trying to forget about that part of his life. And I do think that he has erased his mother from his mind, because he doesn't mention her, and she is the reason that he left the home in the first place. But Laura is stuck in his mind, everywhere he travels. I think a sequel to this book would be very interesting, because I bet that it would be about Tom going back to see Laura, because I believe that he subconciously misses her. I hope that I cleared up the confusion...
