Critical Lens Essay
There are many situations in life which are related to reality and they can be illusional because of your own perspective. a quote that supports this is “ Reality is that which, when you stop believing it, doesn’t go away”. This quote explains that reality is something that even if you don’t believe in it or if you don’t think its true it still doesn’t go away. You can’ deny the fact that that fact is true no matter what. You can make a situation unreal just because of the way you think or you don’t want to face the truth. This quote also explains that you can’t deny the harshness of the truth by consoling yourself. Some people in their lives go through many changes and many phases and they have to face many bitter truths but they try to make it a lie in their own mind by saying that its nothing or such thing like that doesn’t exist. In fact they are consoling themselves because they know that the harsh truth will really hurt them. This quote is true because I have seen many people go through a lot of situations like that and they just don’t want to face the reality. There are many works of literature that support this quote. The first work of literature that supports this quote is a play by Tennessee Williams “ A Streetcar Named Desire” and another play “Macbeth” by William Shakespeare tells about the characters about how they do many things without thinking and then they just don’t want to face the situation.
The play “ A Streetcar Named Desire” by Tennessee Williams confirms that the quote is related to the play. In this play, it shows a story of two sisters. One of the sister Blanche is unmarried and has a dark past which she hides from everyone. Her life is full of lies even lies that her sister doesn’t know. Her sister Stella is married to Stanley and is pregnant. Her sister arrives and many things get revealed about her past.
