The Alienated Crusaders is a pioneer work of Dr Dillip Pattanayak on Isaac Bashevis Singer, the Nobel Laureate of 1978. Dr Pattanayak has analysed the crusade of different characters from different angles in six major novels of Singer. He has established how these characters are alienated figures in the face of their crusade for life. Though they struggle from different perspectives, yet they are coherently connected to their life because of their sense of alienation. It is a commendable analysis of the works of Singer done by Dr Pattanayak.
