Fences similar to the one described are found globally, symbolizing divisions and barriers between communities or individuals. These structures often represent physical separation, but they can also signify emotional or societal divides that impact lives in many ways.
"We hope you never have to reach such a fence," from John Boyne’s book The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, emphasizes the hope that people avoid situations of extreme separation or conflict. It encourages reflection on the importance of unity and understanding to prevent the need for such barriers.
