The character traits that described Jerry in the novel ' Through the Tunnel' are competitive and stubborn.
'Through the Tunnel is a short story written by the British author, Doris Lessing in 1955. The story is about a young boy, Jerry and his mother, who are having their vacation at a beach in a foreign country. Jerry in his stubborn and competitive way set for himself the monumental work of swimming through the river tunnel. He accomplished this successfully and the experience really boost his self confidence.
