Abstract: he present research is an inquiry into the existential predicaments of Artur Sammler, the protagonist of Saul Bellow‟s Mr. Sammler’s Planet. He suffers from the severe sense of alienation because of his personal experience of the Holocaust atrocities during the Second World War. Alienated and bored, Sammler finds himself in existential crisis. To be out from such condition and live a meaningful life, he reads western literature, philosophy, religious theories, and history. It helps him create an imaginative planet of his own with Jewish moral and cultural values and also accept the changing attitude of young generation towards culture and customs. With this realization, he returns to human relationship from isolation.
