The scientific achievements of the modern world failed to impress
the leading writers of this century, leaving them instead
profoundly disturbed by a sense of lost values and of the
insignificance of the individual in a universe seemingly
indifferent to human concerns. In The Search for Selfhood in Modern
Literature Roston explores the strategies adopted by such
mid-century authors as Greene, Salinger, Osborne, Baldwin and
others in their attempt to cope with the spiritual vacuity -
strategies including the emergence of the anti-hero and of literary
existentialism - and offer in the course of the investigation
fascinatingly new insights into their work.
