John Barth begins his professional career with two realistic novels, The Floating Opera and The End of the Road, which are essentially the author＇s intellectual response to nihilism and its various philosophical positions. Based on careful textual analysis, the paper aims to trace Barth＇s thematic evolution as shown in these two novels, clarifying how the author gradually directs his attention away from philosophical investigation to the so-called myth-making and writing itself.
