Brief Synopsis. Set in the early 1940s, "Dangling Man" revolves around the life of Joseph, a thirty-year-old intellectual living in Chicago. The story takes place during the three months before Joseph's call to military service, during which he temporarily finds himself in a state of suspension between civilian life and joining the war effort.
5 de mai. de 2018 · Dangling Man is an existentialist diary that owes much to Fyodor Dostoevski’s Notes from the Underground (1864). The demoralized protagonist Joseph is left “dangling” as he waits to be drafted during World War II. A moral casualty of war, he has no sense of purpose and feels weary of a life that seems boring, trivial, and cruel.
Dangling Man is his journal, a wonderful account of his restless wanderings through Chicago's streets, his musings on the past, his psychological reaction to his inactivity while war rages around him, and his uneasy insights into the nature of freedom and choice.
Dangling Man, the first published work by Saul Bellow, testifies to the psychology of a whole generation that grew up during the Great Depression and the war. We are in 1942; Joseph is twenty-seven, he lives in Chicago, and he’s waiting to be conscripted to the Army as a draftee.
