| Abstract: | The Open Window by Hector Hugh Munro is a short story. The principal interest of the story lies in the prank played by a fifteen-year-old teenager Vera upon a stranger namely Framton Nuttel who comes to the countryside for his nerve cure. As is the characteristic of a teenager, Vera yearns for something thrilling. And so, she frames a tragic story of her aunt Mrs. Sappleton’s husband and her brothers going to hunting never to return so that Framton takes it for truth. Not only this she adds a sense of the supernatural around the house through her story. So, the article seeks to make an analysis of the representation of fact, fantasy and fiction in the story. In the story the act of hunting for the sake of mere amusement is transformed into a tragic life story of Mrs. Sappleton. So, facts and fantasy merge in Vera’s framed story within the story. Then the writer incorporates various autobiographical elements into the story. Thus, the facts regarding the writer’s own life experiences merge with the fictional elements of the story. Within these scopes the author also makes a satire on the then upper-class society by exposing their so-called sophisticated manners and deception. Then the distinction between the appearance and reality is brought into the forefront. And all these are analysed in some detail in the article. |
