Abstract :
Nicole Krauss, an ethnically-Jewish author living in the United States, is a young, distinctive, and acclaimed twenty-first-century writer. Krauss deals with themes such as alienation, migration, and history in her three novels: Man Walks into a Room (2002), The History of Love (2005), and Great House (2010). The histories of her interacting characters extend back to these days and follow them into the present. Krauss intertwines characters from different generations; characters from the twenty-first century possess ones from the 1960s. In this respect, the characters resemble each other. On the other hand, Kraus’s characters have many modern characteristics. Kraus also explores themes of aloofness, alienation, and immigration. All of Kraus’s characters are shunned by their societies. In this paper, Krauss’s novels will be argued in terms of her characters’ identities, feelings of alienation, and experiences of immigration.
