Why did the psychiatrist's interpretation upset Charley's wife? How did he psychiatrist pacify her
Answers
The psychiatrist's interpretation upet Charley's wife because he told them that Charley was living an unhappy life.
Explanation:
The question concerns the short story written by Jack Finney entitled 'The Third Level.'
The story displays the reality of war broken city and how it leaves the people insecure and the ways a man tries to run away from this insecurity.
When Charley went to his psychiatrist friend, Sam, and told hims about the presence of the Third Level at the Grand Central Station, he interpreted that Charley was unhappy and trying to escape the harsh realitiies of insecurity, war, fear, worry, etc and thus he imagined going to the Third Level, which he named 'waking-dream wish fulfilment.' This interpretation made Charley's wife upset because she did not know that her husband was living an unhappy life and above all to know that her husband was unhappy.
The pschiatrist pacified Charley's wife by explaining that Charley was upset because of the modern world problems of fear, anxiety, insecurity, etc. And Charley is just trying to escape these harsh realities of life.
