This paper is an excellent appraisal of Thornton Wilder’s fine works of art. This paper attempts to bring the ideas of Wilder into limelight as it is really unfortunate that hilder became one of the under-rated writers in literary history. All his ideas remove negativism in human mind and give hope for the human beings to struggle hard and survive.

Thus, this paper embodies the ideas of Wilder and projects them in an encouraging way.
