| Abstrakt: | The article focuses on analyzing Thomas Pynchon's novel "Bleeding Edge" from the perspective of resistance to violence, tracing Pynchon's exploration of violence from his earlier works influenced by the Cold War to the portrayal of reconciliatory maternity as a means to defuse violence. It discusses how Pynchon's male characters are infected with a "virus of Death" while the single-mother heroine, Maxine Tarnow, represents an agent of life and resistance. |
