Saul Bellow
Američki pisac (Lachine, Kanada, 10. VI. 1915 – Brookline, Massachusetts, 5. IV. 2005), u romanima o sinovima židovskih doseljenika u Ameriku Čovjek u iščekivanju (Dangling Man, 1944), Žrtva (The Victim, 1947), Ne propusti dan (Seize the Day, 1956) daje sliku potištena otuđenika u velegradu, a ta slika prerasta u bujnu, afirmativnu viziju čovjeka koji svoje odnose prema drugim ljudima gradi izvan konvencija ekonomske i karijerističke discipline u romanu Doživljaji Augiea Marcha (The Adventures of Augie March, 1953). Filozofija, traganje i spoznaje iz moderne antropologije tvore bitan sadržaj burlesknog romana Henderson, kralj kiše (Henderson the Rain King, 1959), a simbolika u romanu Herzog (1964) seže do razine izvornog mita o suvremenome američkome intelektualcu. Među potonjim romanima o kompleksnom odnosu između društva i pojedinca ističu se Humboldtov dar (Humboldt’s Gift, 1975), Dekanov prosinac (The Dean’s December, 1982) i Ravelstein (2000). Dobitnik Nobelove nagrade za književnost 1976.
