It interprets what necessitates this colored man to imagine inanities as the only way to escape. It explores how these fictional texts are able to elaborate and help the reader understand many key issues like escapism, racism, migration and alienation throughout narrative hermeneutics. It shall examine how the alienated black man's interpretations are also related to the readers' spiritual experiences and responses. It elaborates whether Hamid's ordinary routine and personal interest and concern affect his understanding and interpretations of society or not. In addition, this article shows how the rhetorical triangle as well as the hermeneutic circle are necessary to interpret and understand the meaning.
