آن سوی پرچین
کتاب منحصر به فرد “آن سوی پرچین” نیرویی تمثیلی دارد و پر واضح است که همه چیز در داستان نمادین است تا تحت اللفظی. راهی که راوی در آن طی می‌کند، زندگی‌ایی است که یکنواختی آن گهگاه چالش برانگیز است، اما جایگزین آن را فقط توقف و استراحت زندگی (یعنی مرگ) و دست کشیدن برای همیشه از زندگی را میداند و…
The other side of the hedge
In the Other Side of the Hedge by E.M. Forster we have the theme of acceptance, letting go, conflict and failure. Narrated in the first person by an unnamed narrator the reader realizes after reading the story that Forster may be exploring the theme of acceptance. The narrator does not accept the position he finds himself in. He has gone through the hedge and is in a Utopian world in which some critics suggest is Heaven. However, all the narrator wishes to do is to return to Earth and to continue walking. This may be significant as the walking could be symbolic of a person’s participation in life. The narrator may in fact long to return to Earth simply because he does not feel ready for the new world that he has entered. Though the reality is the narrator doesn’t have much say in the matter due to the restrictions imposed on him by the old man. If anything, the narrator is in conflict with himself. Torn between Heaven and Earth. There is also an external conflict between the narrator and the old man who informs the narrator that he cannot go back as he wishes to do so.
