The Quest for Epic in Contemporary American Fiction: John Updike, Philip Roth and Don DeLillo (review)

problematically, the way in which female behavior is read illustrates how the application of Darwinian principles can so easily lead to socially regressive forms of social Darwinism. The categories for female behavior are stereotypical at best. Women can only be "fast" (if they respond to philanderers) or "coy" (55) (if they respond to faithful males) or both. Furthermore, interpreting Popeye and Temple Drake in terms of sexual selection and "evolutionary fitness" (60) ends in an implicit analysis whereby a rape victim selects her rapist and implies the kind of choice that a rape victim does not have. When Wainwright describes Temple in the Luxembourg Gardens at the end of the novel and asks, "How could sociobiological evolution have produced this state of affairs?" (67), we are tempted to answer "Exactly."
