Many studies have examined Albee's The Zoo Story from different perspectives. This paper is planned to be an addition by reconsidering this play as an impressionistic allegory. Through the concept of allegory which simply means turning characters into conceptual entities, the study revisits the tragic figure of Albee's The Zoo Story, Jerry, who is predominated with unattainable desires of communication and socially alienated. Via the vehicle of reader response theory, the focus may highlight new interpretation of Albee's work. Moreover, alienation comes in discussion as Jerry's sexual reference drives him to his destitution and it is to certain extent the cause of his detachment from the society and ultimately leads him to a tragic end.
The study aims to provide the reader with an impressionistic overview of what alienation is in this specific context of the play and what is the lesson behind such type of allegory.
