One scene I found interesting from The Great Divorce is when the ghost is trying to pick up the golden fruit in the forest. At first it tried to pick up many but finally is reduced to choosing a single piece. I was pretty astonished when it actually succeeded in picking up the apple. Then the waterfall angel speaks to the spirit saying that it needs to put the fuit down and calls it a fool. The angel also mentoins that there is no room in hell for the apple. This was a very interesting thought because the hell presented earlier was one of infinate space. In the end the ghost resumes its struggle to carry off the apple and refuses the offer to stay and learn to eat it. What is it about hell that makes it incapable of holding this apple whithin it? Hell is big enough to hold other creations of God (human soul); why not this apple?
