Question

Justify the suitability of the title hack driver

Answer 1

The Hack Driver is a short story by Sinclair Lewis.

The title "The Hack Driver" is according to the situation of the story. The actual meaning of 'hack Driver' is a Taxi-Driver'. A taxi-driver takes people from place to place and helps them to reach their destination.

The title is completely in accordance with the plot of the story.

The story has three main characters.

One is the narrator himself.

The 2nd character is Oliver Lutkins. The narrator wants to find Oliver. He had never seen Oliver before.

The 3rd character is Bill Magnuson. It is Bill who creates the confusion and creates twists in the story. He tries to help the narrator in finding Oliver. He takes the narrator from one place to another in search of Oliver. And at the end, it is revealed to the narrator that Bill is actually the Oliver.

Bill takes the narrator and wanders here and there, so the title of the story is completely justified.
