In the article the authors compares diffrents stories that have the same meaning in some way. For example the author had compared "the matrix" , "alices adventures in wonderland , and "the allegory of the cave. The author takes a small piece from each of these stories and compares it, for example in the movie matrix morpheus offers neo two pills a red pill and a blue pill in this case one pill will allow him to see what the real world is and what he has been living in the other pill would allow him to forget about everything that happend.
Neo gets questioned by morpheus and in "alices adventures in wonderland" alice gets questioned by a catepeller. The questions they get asked are some what similar as in who they are. The other story that they compare it too was " the allegory of the cave" this part can be compared more to the matrix because in the "allegory of the cave the prisoners get chained up in a cave an face the walss not allowed to see the opening of the cave and they live an illusion for most of there life, when they are set free they don't know what to believ or what is what. In the matrix neo had been living a lie as well he wasn't a prisoner physically but he was a prisoner mentally.
Neo was plugged into the matrix which was a comouter program that makes every feel real. But when he gets unplugged from the matrix he doesn't know what to believe anymore. Just like in "the allegory of the cave" when the prisoner gets released from the cave he doesn't know what to belive anymore. In "alices adventures in wonderland" she wakes from up from her dream.
