«The Dangling Man» is a novel by Saul Bellow, published by Penguin in paperback (192 pages, in English).
The novel takes the form of the diary of Joseph, a young man from Chicago who has quit his job and awaits conscription for World War II. A series of mix-ups delays his induction and leaves him idle for a year; his entries record the restlessness of waiting and reflections on freedom, identity, and choice.
For readers of American literary classics interested in introspective narrative and novels in diary form.
Saul Bellow was a Canadian-American writer. For his literary work, Bellow was awarded the Pulitzer Prize, the 1976 Nobel Prize in Literature, and the National Medal of Arts. He is the only writer to win the National Book Award for Fiction three times, and he received the National Book Foundation's lifetime Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters in 1990.
