The protagonist of Herzog is a man going through his second divorce and an internal crisis. Moses Herzog is reevaluating his life, recalling the events in his past that shaped him, and trying to come to some kind of conclusion about his own life and the world around him.

Herzog is a 1964 novel by Saul Bellow, composed in part of letters from the protagonist Moses E. Herzog.The character of Herzog in many ways echoes a fictionalized Saul Bellow. Both Herzog and Bellow grew up in Canada, the sons of bootleggers who had emigrated from Russia (St. Petersburg). Both are Jewish, lived in Chicago for significant periods of time, and were divorced twice (at the time of writing; Bellow would go on to divorce four of his five wives). Herzog is nearly the same age that Bellow was when he wrote the novel.
