あらすじ・要約 - Seize the day
Seize the Day (1956) is Nobel Laureate Saul Bellow's 4th novel. Many consider it his finest work.
The story centers around a day in the life of Wilhelm Adler (aka Tommy Wilhelm) and his existential crisis. Wilhelm is a failed actor in his forties. He is unemployed, impecunious, separated from his wife (who refuses to agree to a divorce), and estranged from his children and his father. He is also stuck with the same immaturity and lack of insight which has brought him to failure. In Seize the Day Wilhelm experiences a day of reckoning as he is forced to examine his life and to finally accept the "burden of self".

Product Description
In Saul Bellow's title novella, Tommy Wilhelm, at 42, is in the midst of what seems to be a serious decline. He is separated from his wife and family, estranged from his father, unemployed, and broke. Over the course of one day, Tommy reviews the shape of his past and attempts to plot the course of his future--and has a valuable moment of insight when he aimlessly drifts into the funeral of a man he doesn't know. SEIZE THE DAY is a bleak, compassionate tale, widely considered one of Bellow's best novels. Accompanying it are three short stories and a one-act play.
