An Altruist is a novel that delves into the struggle between idealism and societal norms. The protagonist, an ardent idealist, is committed to advocating for altruism and a more equitable society. The story centers on his attempts to enlighten a group of high society individuals, who dismiss his radical ideas with boredom and cynicism. This clash between his earnest beliefs and the shallow values of the socialites surrounding him highlights the tension between personal ideals and the pressures of societal expectations. As the protagonist grapples with these ideals, his moral dilemmas intensify when an unexpected inheritance challenges his commitment to altruism. The novel explores the complexities of selflessness, the critique of wealth, and the difficulty of remaining true to one’s principles in a world focused on materialism. Through dialogues with others, the protagonist’s internal conflict reveals the emotional and philosophical challenges of advocating for change in an indifferent, often hostile environment.
