The word "reality" in literature functions as a versatile tool to contrast appearance with substance, bridging the tangible and the abstract. At times, it denotes an objective measure or fact, as when distances are precisely defined ([1], [2]) or when historical and societal conditions are critically assessed ([3], [4]). In other instances, it conveys a personal, inner truth—the palpable presence of a person or emotion that transforms mere appearance into a vivid experience ([5], [6], [7]). Authors also use "reality" to highlight the shift from imaginative ideals to a concrete, sometimes stark, actuality, questioning the veracity of emotions and perceptions by pitting them against an immutable fact ([8], [9], [10]). Moreover, the term frequently surfaces in philosophical debates about existence and authenticity, urging readers to distinguish between superficial facades and the underlying essence of things ([11], [12]). Through these various layers, literature portrays "reality" not simply as the external world but as a rich, multifaceted construct that both grounds and challenges our understanding of life.
