Bartleby by Herman Melville Book Summary

Este relato que data de 1846, tuvo escaso éxito tanto del público como de la crítica, aunque su importancia y reconocimiento, no ha cesado de aumentar desde entonces. Es la historia narrada en primera persona por un abogado cuyo nombre no se revela, cuyo bufete se encuentra radicado en las cercanías de Wall Street. El resto de personajes “colaterales” son: Turkey , Nippers y Ginger Nut. MientrasTurkey y Nippers son copistas, Ginger Nut, que tiene sólo doce años, es el chico de los recados. Dado el ingente trabajo, el abogado decide contratar a un nuevo empleado, Bartleby, quien es de inmediato contratado. Su figura es descripta como "pálidamente pulcra, lamentablemente respetable,incurablemente solitaria".En un principio, Bartleby realiza una gran cantidad de trabajo y se muestra como un empleado ejemplar. Sin embargo, tras un breve período de tiempo, y de forma aparentemente inexplicable, cuando el narrador le solicita que examine con él un documento, Bartleby contesta: "Preferiría no hacerlo" ("I would prefer not to", ). A partir de entonces, a cada requerimiento de su patrón para examinar su trabajo, Bartleby contesta únicamente esta frase, con total serenidad, aunque continúa trabajando como copista con la misma eficiencia que al principio.
