More about the book

The character of Bartleby embodies the frustrations of the author, reflecting a struggle against societal expectations and the demands of commercialism. Set against the backdrop of 1851, the narrative explores profound philosophical questions through Bartleby's refusal to conform to traditional writing tasks. This resistance serves as a critique of the pressures faced by writers and highlights Melville's own artistic dilemmas, offering a deeper commentary on the complexities of individuality within a democratic society.
