- Annotation
- Compares The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber to Gordimer s A Hunting Accident, noting striking parallels in plot that suggest Gordimer s story is a feminist response to Hemingway s tale of domination and dependency. Gives a Lacanian reading of Macomber, focusing especially on Macomber s transformation considering the Oedipal complex. Harrow relies on the theories of Irigaray and Cixous in reading Gordimer s revision of Hemingway.
