The Door in the Wall #819659

Lionel Wallace, a successful but unhappy politician who reminisces about a magical door he discovered in a wall as a child. This door led him to an enchanted garden, a place of wondrous beauty and joy, which he has since longed to find again. As he navigates his disillusioned adult life, Wallace is haunted by the memory of this garden and the fulfillment it represents. This tale beautifully explores the universal themes of lost innocence, the yearning for a simpler, happier existence, and the conflict between duty and personal desire.
