What is theme?

In literature, we can define theme as the main message underlying any literary work. It is that idea behind the work, the one thing authors want their readers to perceive or understand.

Among the sentences from the story provided in the question, there are two that develop a theme about new journeys. They are the following:

• (1) "Tom had seen a thousand George Willards go out of their towns to the city."

• (5) "The young man, going out of his town to meet the adventure of life, began to think but he did not think of anything very big or dramatic."
