The Late Mattia Pascal

The exploration of self and societal roles feels deeply rooted in Italian culture of the time. I wonder what inspired Pirandello to focus on these ideas.

His desire for freedom is compelling, but his actions also raise questions about morality and personal responsibility. How did others interpret his choices?

The conclusion leaves a lot open to interpretation, and I’m curious whether Pirandello intended it to be a commentary on the human condition or a reflection of societal constraints.
