A story of abandonment, broken dreams, and the cruel reality of life, The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams provides us with a closer look into the world of a young girl facing self-esteem issues during the Great Depression. The Glass Menagerie centers on a small family—a young man, an over-controlling mother, and a lonely daughter. Of the three characters, Laura Wingfield—the daughter—is portrayed as the weakest and frailest. Born with a lame leg and therefore a “cripple” (1.2.82), Laura is

This may have been a time when Fitzgerald felt lonely and isolated and maybe that’s why the theme is conspicuous through the novel, especially with Nick Carraway’s character. The theme of loneliness and isolation is addressed throughout The Great Gatsby and The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
