Bartleby the Scrivener, A Story of Wall Street.
"Bartleby the Scrivener: A Story of Wall Street" is a short story by Herman Melville, first published anonymously in Putnam's Magazine in November and December 1853. It was later included in Melville's collection, The Piazza Tales, in 1856. The narrative follows a Wall Street lawyer and his peculiar scrivener, Bartleby, who famously prefers not to engage in tasks, reflecting themes of isolation and the dehumanizing nature of modern work. The story is notable for its exploration of existentialism and has influenced various adaptations and discussions in literature and philosophy.
