The Door In The Wall

Introduction: We have to write a Leterary Essay, Taking account " The Door In The Wall" or "The Fly In The Ointment" , we will write our Literary Essay. Then we have to choose one story, use the theory, the example and the graphic organizer and write the essay between 400-500 words.



In the Door in  the Wall, by H.G.Wells, a boy called Wallace when he was five years old, he saw a door in a Wall. That door was green and the wall was white. Into the door there was a garden that had animals, flowers and it was a fantastic place. Then inside in the garden he found a woman that represented his mother and showed him a book and inside it he saw a summary of his life. One of the themes in this story was reality versus Imagination.
Reality was represent in the story because Wallace compared his misserable life with the life inside the garden. He was a Politician as a child , He suffered the loss of his mother and his father´s rejection since he was a very busy man. Then he was a man with many skills, he was a brillant worker who could have made it to the cabinet if he had been alive he was a good student and he was good at sports.
Imagination was always present in the story because it represent to the life he imagined in the garden. Wallace´s imagination had been opressed by his father to become a successful man. It was also present when he entered inside the door and the door did not exist, It was Wallace´s imagination because the door changed the Position all the Time. He was so eager to find the door again.
We can say that another theme could be loneliness because he was the only one who was able to see that door. His mother was dead and his father pais little attention to him. Ad a result of his loneliness we can say that his mind had created the door in order to make him imagine things that would make him feel lonely.
In The Door in the Wall Wallace showed the reader wht any person would do if they felt lonely. I found this story interesting because It constantly made me think when he was going to cross the door or not. The author was constantly shifting between the two main themes in this story and vept the reader´s attention.

He always only in class. He was known as the most ammoying person in the class. Robert who had been married to Sarah for 17 years was a 40-year-old man, with a tired look in his eyes.

Diary Entry " A Diferent History''

We had to make a Diary Entry on a poem that called  " A Different History" wich were seeing in Literature. We had to make as if I was Sujata Batth in the times in wich the British were colonizing India.


17th May, Of 1866

Dear Diary

It was another boring day! cleaning my bed as usual, when someone opened the door violently. They were the British, They caught me and threw me away of the house. I tried to run as fast as I could , So when I arrived somewhere of the street, a car stoped in the place I was, I asked him if he could leave me at the centre of the city. When he left me alone I started to cry. I was so sad! I am still in shock , and the memories of the men fighting with my dad and I felt bad. I am still thinking about where my mother is , this is not my real diary, I lost it when the British were there , and why in my family? , why my city?, why me? what can I do ! . Then I found a boy and I asked him to help me . He told me that the best thing that I could do was To stay at home and wait in silence. But the problem was that I didn't have home , So he told me to come to his house, "I live in the 181 Castelli in ... " and he couldn't finish , because the British killed him . So crying I started to run. I found an abandoned little house near the field. Si I entered there and I hid in a corner, crying and I slept. When I woke up I was in the same place and all was in silence , So I started looking if someone was there and nobody answered and nobody was in any place. I'm calm here in this house writing this Diary Sheet of paper. 

So I will leave you and continue waiting for something to happen.

Hope to see you tomorrow with good news.  Kisses             Sujata Batth !!
