About the Book

Literature is the biographical window to the human experience. It has no geographical, political, cultural, or religious boundaries. Nothing can stop it from penetrating the most intimate crevices of life--no matter how insignificant. Literature allows the reader to listen in (eavesdrop) to the gossip of life: the frustrations, hopes and dreams, triumphs and defeats of the characters who attempt to uncover the meaning of the tragic sense of life.
