Overview

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-Bartleby, the scribe (Bartleby the Scrivener: A Story of Wall Street) is a story by Herman Melville (the author of Moby Dick), disconcerting while the personality of one of the protagonists has raised countless theories about it. The story begins with the first person voice of a man who owns a copy office for legal documents in downtown Wall Street. A man comes to him applying for a job: Bartleby. He is an effective worker (he copies documents without errors, he is the first to arrive and the last to leave) but, before another class of requests, the only thing he can answer is: he would rather not do so (I would prefer not to).IN THAT ATTITUDE I WAS WHEN I TOLD HIM WHAT I SHOULD DO, THIS IS, EXAMINING WITH ME A BRIEF DOCUMENT. IMAGINE MY SURPRISE, NO, MY CONSTERNATION WHEN, WITHOUT MOVING FROM YOUR DESK, BARTLEBY, WITH A STRONGLY SOFT VOICE AND SIGNED, ANSWERED: -I WOULD PREFER NOT TO DO IT.I WAS SITTING IN PERFECT SILENCE, TRYING TO ORDER MY AMAZED FACULTIES. It suddenly occurred to me that maybe my ears had deceived me or that Bartleby had not understood my words
