Lionel Wallace tells a friend about the green door in a white wall that he saw as a child, which led to a garden of wonders. H.G. Wells's short story follows him as he returns to the door at different points in life, but finds that it is a distraction from his obligations. The story ends in a way that leaves the reader to decide what the door was.
It is for readers of fantasy. It is a short, wistful story of longing.
Balanced in tone; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Story Seeker. Which reader are you?
