What you find when you're avoiding searching

I'm reading two novels for my English AS Level class. The first is 'The Time Traveller's Wife' by A. Niffenegger. The second is an English classic, 'The Time Machine', by H.G. Wells.

(The films are no comparison to the books - obviously)

But I'm not telling you this as some form of advertisement for the books themselves, the relevance is I have a repetitive dream.

In the dream there is a man and he is running as fast as he can. I can see his feet landing in sequence on the grass. I don't run. And that is the whole dream.
How do these two topics link?
The dream made me revise the purpose of both stories;
if each author could ask a question I think Niffenegger would be interested in who the person was,
H.G. Wells would ask where they were running to.

This made me think what would I ask, and what would you?
I realised I would ask how does he feel... what's your focus in your writing?
