Abstract
- A literary criticism is presented of the book "A Seventh Man" by John Berger. The book explores the profound psychological effects of migration, emphasizing the displacement and loss of identity that accompany the search for employment. The book examines how migrants are often reduced to mere commodities, treated as expendable labor rather than individuals with hopes, dreams, and personal histories.
