Summary | "Wesblock, the Autobiography of an Automaton" by Harry McDonald Walters is a fictional autobiography written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers on Wesblock, a character who reflects on his life experiences and personal growth while grappling with his identity and the concept of existence. It explores themes of family, societal expectations, and the search for meaning. The opening of the autobiography establishes a unique tone as Wesblock recounts his origins, emphasizing the ordinary yet complex dynamics of his early life in Montreal. His birth, characterized by a struggle for survival and a sense of being an outcast, sets the stage for a narrative filled with introspection. As he shares snapshots of his childhood, including his delicate health, family relationships, and the impact of his upbringing, readers gain insight into a mind that questions existence and purpose. The narrative unfolds with a blend of humor and poignancy, revealing Wesblock's early encounters with life's mysteries and the formative experiences that shape his views on humanity and himself.
