Mr X, or, the Anxieties of the Forgotten Man

Piero Formica

Chapter 12 in Stories of Innovation for the Millennial Generation: The Lynceus Long View, 2013, pp 77-81 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Blown on the winds of the Great Depression, the forgotten man is filled with anguish, afraid that he will begin to soar to success only to be dispatched once more into oblivion. His story is a latter-day Gone with the Wind. Margaret Mitchell’s 1936 novel chronicles the fall from the dizzy heights of the Roaring Twenties to the depths of the devastating economic depression of the 1930s.
