520 We think we know what upward mobility stories are about--
virtuous striving justly rewarded, or unprincipled social
climbing regrettably unpunished. Either way, these stories
seem obviously concerned with the self-making of self-
reliant individuals rather than with any collective
interest. In Upward Mobility and the Common Good, Bruce
Robbins completely overturns these assumptions to expose a
hidden tradition of erotic social interdependence at the
heart of the literary canon. Reinterpreting novels by
figures such as Balzac, Stendhal, Charlotte Bronte,
Dickens, Dreiser, Wells, Doctorow, and Ish.
