- On the complex and contradictory theme of illusion and reality permeating Cantwell s interwoven vision of America and Venice. Long s comparison reveals the protagonist s idealization of both the Old and New Worlds, along with his undermining of those artificial representations. Concludes that in the end, Cantwell must face death devoid of the comfort of illusion.
