Hardcover
Price: £0.00
The works of William Styron reflect a central theme, best identified in his book dealing with the Holocaust "Sophie's Choice." He propounds a theory of individual development based on egoism, which leads one to attempt to remold men and events to one's will, losing moral scruples in the process. Antisemitism, Southern racism, and anti-feminism can all be explained by this theory.
