Michael Mack concludes his discussion of Elliot Perlman's Seven Types of Ambiguity with the assertion that the novel 'narrates how the intolerance of ambiguity ... ruins not only personal relationships and the seemingly private appreciation of literature ... it also sheds light on how society's self-absorption with fundamentalism marks the point of its disintegration into isolated selves that have become utterly hostile to helping each other and themselves'.
