- Annotation
- Examines the function of the African stories within the larger context of Scribner s published novel. Sibergleid analyzes gender, sexuality, and power to argue that Jenks s edition solidifies David s normative, heterosexual masculinity at the expense of his perverse relationship with Catherine. Concludes that Scribner s romantic ending, though unsatisfying, is inevitable given its thematic and structural parallels with Davey s story ending in the death of the elephant.
