Picture: Double Locked, Double Doors




I selected this picture because it shows a pair of double locked, double doors like the ones Susanna keeps describing in the book. The doors show that the women in the ward are locked in the hospital without the option of escape (*except for Lisa). It also means that there is a thick barrier between the patients and the real world. The world may be scared of these crazy people, but they are more scared of it than it is of them: "Now I was safe, now I was really crazy, and nobody could take me out of there." (104)
