Book Description:
|
The Bildungsroman is a genre novel whose territory is that of a young, alienated hero on the cusp of maturity, intent on discovering who he is and being true to that identity. Examining such works as DH Lawrence's ""Sons and Lovers"" and James Joyce's ""A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man"", this work aims to contribute to literary criticism.
