In "The Monkey's Paw," W.W. Jacobs explores themes of fate, consequence, and the dangers of tampering with the natural order. The author aims to illustrate how desires can lead to unintended and often tragic outcomes, warning against the hubris of trying to control one's destiny. Through the tragic experiences of the White family, Jacobs emphasizes the idea that some forces should remain untouched, and that the pursuit of material wishes can result in dire consequences.
