When you open this book, we will embark on a journey in the ink and paper spaceship that G. Wells invented for the happiness and well-being of humanity. Prepare for two wonderful works! "The Door in the Wall" is one of the most exemplary stories in the history of modern literature, one that, according to the British writer and critic C.S. Lewis, carries a "mythical, transcendental quality." Before us is a door through which one can pass from the real world to the immortal reality. A place where the air is intoxicating and youth and joy envelop the visitor. Does this magical garden exist, capable of transcending the tiring and repetitive everyday life? In "Under the Knife," the character is anxious about the operation he must undergo, and fears that his death is near. On the fateful day, even though the anesthesiologist gives him chloroform, the patient remains aware of everything that is happening around him, while he floats between body and soul, and between space and its absence: at this moment a fictional and philosophical journey through consciousness begins.
