Solitude in Society

More about the book

Focusing on the theme of isolation, the author employs a Marxist lens to connect literary analysis with social realities. This study contrasts existentialist views of alienation by framing solitude as a modern issue tied to the rise of advanced capitalism. Sayre's sociological approach offers a spirited examination of how literature reflects and critiques contemporary societal structures, making a compelling case for the relevance of social context in understanding literary themes.
