In "Through the Tunnel," the underwater tunnel that Jerry is determined to swim through may be seen as a symbol for exploration of a different and unknown time or phase or another world.
Explanation:
- In the short story, ‘Through the Tunnel’, the prize winning author Doris Lessing tries to portray the evolution of a person from one phase to another.
- Human beings are always in the quest of the new, the future. They always want to explore what is on the other side.
- Just as the living man is in search of the truth beyond death so is a small boy in search of what lies in the unknown territories.
- Thus in the story the underwater tunnel symbolises the unknown that lies beyond the tunnel.
