"The Dolls House" A contributing factor to the story "The Dolls House" by Katherine Mansfield is the characterization of Kezia as she travels in her innocence through the symbolic world of experience. ... The story commences with the arrival of the dolls house sent to the Burnell children. ... Kezia proceeds to find fault with the state and proportions of the dolls house and perfection with the lamp in its simplicity. ... She states in her actions that she is strong enough to engage in war against conformity when she invites the Kelveys to see the dolls house despite her mothers unjustified demands. When the Kelveys have their visit, they hardly get to take in the full effect of the dolls house before they are shooed "out as if they were chickens.
