Eden: The use of senses works to symbolize the satisfaction that the Happylife Home brings because of the limitless imaginative possibilities and their realistic designs. For example, the imagery used in the nursery affects three different senses; smell, touch, and sight. "The ceiling above them became a deep sky with a hot yellow sun. George Hadley felt the perspiration start on his brow." is an example of touch, as George can feel the sun beating down on him, causing him to feel hot and sweaty. This symbolizes just how realistic the places in the house can feel, which can create feelings of caution. In contrast, the use of sight symbolizes the satisfaction that the home can bring because of the freedom that imagination grants. The green forest in the nursery puts the family at ease for various reasons, such as beauty or reassurance. "There was a green, lovely forest, a lovely river, a purple mountain, high voices singing, and Rima, lovely and mysterious, lurking in the trees with colourful flights of butterflies, like animated bouquets, lingering in her long hair." What the Hadleys view inside the nursery during this time brings peace because of the "loveliness" in the setting. This also includes various literary devices, such as similes and connotation, to make this scene feel even more alive. Lastly, the sense of smell is incorporated to help symbolize the liveliness of the home when the African veldt is described as having, "A great, rusty smell of animals, the green smell of the hidden water hole, and the great smell of dust like a red paprika in the hot air." This foreshadows the rest of the story because the unpleasant smells make the parents feel uncomfortable and less trusting of the nursery.
