In The Great Gatsby it is of a man of newly acquired wealth who sets forth trying to achieve an already lost dream. While in Of Mice and Men this ‘story’ is about two men who try to cure their loneliness and set forth trying to attain a simple enough dream, but let their selves waver with each struggle life passes along moving further away from the path of achieving the dream. In The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, Douglass writes about his own past and how he achieved his never ending dream. Each book is of a different story, and maybe at first glance one wouldn’t connect each book to a common matter, but as one looks deeper a single theme connects each novel. The concept of the dream is a common topic.
