“The eyes of our brothers are dull, and never do they look one another in the eyes.

Even though one relationship was not able to survive through the trauma, the relationship between Oskar and his mother is fixed with truth and also implied that their

The people in the office are staying in their only little bubble, until Bartleby appeared. Bartleby appeared to be a complaint, hardworking man.

However, if readers look more closely at the statement, “I would prefer not to” it is not “I will not,” stressing that Bartleby is rebelling for an emotional reason and not a moral choice.

The ‘master narrative’ posed by Takaki describes the growing
