More about the book
The narrative explores the comic archetype of the Little Man, exemplified in the works of Woody Allen and Charlie Chaplin, who confronts life's injustices. Through a blend of pathos, irony, and slapstick humor, both characters embody absurdist traits: Chaplin's Tramp, a bumbling yet resourceful figure, contrasts with Allen's introspective fool, known for his quick romantic entanglements and philosophical musings. The book delves into themes of alienation and resilience in an indifferent world.
