Bellow mengatakan bahawa semua wataknya, Eugene Henderson, Henderson the Rain King , adalah yang paling menyukai dirinya. <ref name="nytimes">{{Cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2005/04/06/books/06bellow.html|title=The New York Times, Mel Gussow and Charles McGrath[2005], in Saul Bellow, Who Breathed Life into American Novel, Dies at 89.|publisher=nytimes.com|access-date=26 August 2015}}</ref> Bellow membesar sebagai kanak-kanak kumar yang tidak sombong, seorang "jubah tebal", dan seorang pendatang dari Quebec. Seperti yang diterangkan oleh Christopher Hitchens, fiksyen Bellow dan watak-watak utama mencerminkan kerinduannya sendiri untuk melampaui pertempuran, "untuk mengalahkan bukan sahaja keadaan ghetto tetapi juga psikosis ghetto."Arguably: Essays, Christopher Hitchens[2011], "Saul Bellow: The Great Assimilator", Atlantic Books, 2011 "Titan Amerika Yahudi dari ghetto" Oleh Christopher Hitchens, 30 Disember 30, 2011  Protagonis Bellow, dalam satu bentuk atau yang lain, semua bergumul dengan apa yang Albert Corde, dekan dalam The Dean Disember, yang disebut "kegilaan besar-besaran abad ke-20." Transendensi "yang tidak disengaja" itu (frasa dari Dangling Man) dicapai, jika ia dapat dicapai sama sekali, melalui "asimilasi pembelajaran yang ganas (Hitchens) dan penekanan kepada bangsawan.
