Bob seems to
The garden straddles the border between the public and the private, the social and the personal, and the city and the country. It is both man-made, yet natural; both intimate, yet open. Hence, the garden, as a place of such contradictions, becomes a space for William Makepeace Thackeray to facilitate characters’ contemplation, pushing the engagement with the dichotomy between nostalgia and progress.
