Natural Selection and Stories by Bellow and Gold

Uploaded by : Essays-Now.com

This 6 page paper uses Charles Darwin’s theory of natural selection in his book “The Origin of Species” as a springboard for a discussion of two other stories, “Fifty Cents a Night” by Michael Gold and “Looking for Mr. Green” by Saul Bellow. Using other supporting articles, the paper argues that nature selects the strongest to survive, but does not necessarily select the good, nor does it appear that “goodness” is a quality for survival.
