- Annotation
- Discusses the novel s revision of traditional gender roles resulting from the unsettled aftermath of World War I. Suggests the novel s androgynous strains reflect postwar uncertainty regarding the extinction of Old World notions of sexuality, love, and romance, and that Jake s impotence becomes an allegory of the modern condition.
