“THE DOOR IN THE WALL”
In “The door in the wall” by H.G.
Wells a child called Wallace that was 5 years old saw a green door in a white
wall. He did not want to tell it to anyone because they were going to tell him
that he was crazy. His father was a lawyer and his mother died when he was a child.
I am going to speak about reality vs imagination, loneliness and insanity.
Reality vs imagination when Wallace
imagined a different world from the reality world. An example was inside de
door when he saw things that he wanted to happen in his life.
In relation to loneliness, because
during the story we can see that Wallace was always alone, his father did not
pay attention and his mother died when he was little and he only had one
friend.
About the topic of insanity, the
story shows that he was crazy. First he saw a door, he entered and a lot of crazy
things happened. Then he continued seeing the dor in different parts.
The author shows that a child that always
is alone and his father did not pay attention can have problems. When I read
the story I realized that it is true that childrend that are alone can have
problems. I recommend this book to parents that do not pay attention to their
sons to realize what can happen.
