Post WW2 literature usually dealt with finding yourself in a world where individualism basically does not exist anymore. The most important question is "Who am i?" which is why this literature often dealt with somebody's regular boring life that suddenly gets completely torn apart due to some outside influence that wrecks our perception of who we are in the universe.
