THE COUNTRY and the CITY

The city, on the other hand, is depicted in English novels as a symbol of capitalist production, labor, domicile, and exploitation, where it is seen as the "dark mirror" of the country. 

The country represented Eden while the city became the hub of modernity, a quintessential place of loneliness and loss of romanticism.
