! ! the nightmare, THE FUTURE !! ! ! ! ! the destroyed. “ ‘Am I in fairylanded?’ she wandered. ! ! ! ! ! ‘No,’ said the old crony, ‘This is the real world.’ ”
THE FUTURE This section is meant to explore the nightmarish reality Lily enters at the end of the play when the Skriker forces her to confront her great granddaughter. What will our world look like if we continue to carelessly destroy the environment? The dead babies and lost children throughout the play are the representation of the future destroyed !! will we learn from their warnings? Will we realize too late, like Lily, that things are not what they seem? Although Lily steps up to sacrifice herself for the good of the future, the play tells us Lily is not enough. She crumbles to dust, just like our world will, if we do not take a united stand soon. As you read through the following section, carefully consider whether this future world is a place you could raise a child. "The damage, furthermore, has encompassed personal, social, and environmental fields. It extends #om the underworld of th" opening monologue into the future generations of the concluding scene" $Rayner 207%.
