More about the book

Challenging conventional views of upward mobility narratives, Robbins reveals a hidden tradition that emphasizes erotic social interdependence rather than individual self-making. By examining literary works, he uncovers how these stories reflect a collective interest, reshaping our understanding of ambition and community. This exploration invites readers to reconsider the dynamics of social ascent and the interconnectedness of human relationships within the literary canon.
