Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The book explores the evolution of character representation in twentieth-century novels, arguing against the conventional view of individualism in literature. It highlights how prominent authors like D. H. Lawrence, Olaf Stapledon, Aldous Huxley, and Doris Lessing embraced the concept of a porous self, influenced by parapsychology, to create narratives centered on communities and shared ideas rather than individual development. This analysis calls for a reevaluation of character in literary criticism, emphasizing the interconnectedness of characters within their social contexts.
