This book examines the impact of scientific and sexologic theories on the creation of characters in the prose of two moderns, Hemingway and H. D. While their literary forms were distinctly different, the author shows how their literary motives were very similar - being rooted in Evolutionary theory. This book illustrates the enormous impact of evolutionary theory, and the correlate theories of sex and psychology on literature provides one of the most powerful lenses with which to 'read' modern texts. Revealed through this revisionary reading - a bi-gendered reading - are features of both authors' work previously unelucidated while essential to understanding both Hemingway and H. D.
