It's been a long time since I've seen the film,

Science Fiction » in reply to What about the time after the rats. Was it just a very short-lived fantasy? n/t

ER — 3/2/2014 3:58:53 AM (archived)

and even longer since I read the book.

Now that you mention it, the ending does seem sort of dreamlike, surreal; although at the time I read it it didn't really feel that way, or at least, I didn't think of it that way.

The book is online, maybe I'll read that last chapter again and refresh my memory..
