چکیده (انگلیسی):

This paper examines from a comparative perspective six novels telling stories of extreme life experiences set in both
Western and oriental cultures. The paper argues that in these extreme cases, the characters, subjected to absolute power
domination, lose their individual identities and are transformed into “human products.” Their struggles for power will
always remain futile unless they find a way to reverse the power relationships they are trapped in. Such a reversal
allows the hope of an exit for the “human products” to escape the hopeless situation of perpetuated social, sexual, and
mental enslavement.
