Native Son, a novel by Richard Wright, is the story of Bigger Thomas, a twenty year old black man living in Chicago during the 1930s. ...
Throughout the novel, Wright uses naturalism to depict Biggers life and the effects of a white society. Naturalism is the practice of reproducing subjects as precisely as possible, and is usually used by writers to show the miserable aspects of life, especially relating to people facing an oppressive society or poverty. The use of naturalism can easily be seen throughout Book I, as Biggers everyday life is portrayed as hopeless and oppressive. ... All of these examples of Biggers life are forms of naturalism used by Wright to provide for an impending tragedy.
