Name a recurring theme in Ōe's novels.

  • Time Travel

  • Space Colonization

  • Existentialism

  • Virtual Reality

Answer

Existentialism, a recurrent theme in Ōe's literary works, delves into the profound questions of human existence, the essence of being, and the struggle for meaning in an apparently meaningless universe. His characters grapple with their own identities, seeking to create order and purpose in the face of an indifferent and often absurd world, making readers ponder the very foundations of their existence.
