Literary Essay

In The Door in the Wall, by H. G Wells, a boy called Wallace imagine a green door in a white wall. Inside the door there had a great and fantasy world, but it was a problem of his imagination. This story have three tone. Reality vs imagination, loneliness and insanity.

  The “reality vs imagination” in the story explains that the reality life is the opposite world than he imagined. Inaide the door, the imaginative world is like a paradise with children playingin the garden and phanters. He imagined the world that he wished there insisde the green door. The kids that appear in this world are the friends that he never see in his really life. Also its appear a beautiful woman that he imagine like his mother.

  His childhood was in “loneliness” because his mother died when he was little and he never have any friends. The relationship with his father was very bad. The poor boy imagined all the people in this fantasy world because he never see these people. He only have one friend called Randolph, but Randolph thougt that Wallace was crazy because Wallace invite Randolph to saw this fantasy world and Randolph could not see nothing.

  He suffered a very important problem called “insanity”. This means that he imagined things that really do not exist. He had insanity because he imagined “The Door in the Wall”.

  For my opinion this story is very interesting because all this fantasy world and all the big problems that Wallace need to support. Generally i don’t like this type of story but The Door in the Wall atrapt me, i was very interestin how this story will be ending.
