In Oryx and Crake (2003), Margaret Atwood features an ecological double-discourse as she draws more attention to genetic engineering than anything else. Crake might be an ecological savior in that he creates genetically modified humans (Crakers) who are eco-friendly per se, and lets them reside on the earth after destroying almost all of anthropocentric humans. Corresponding with their technoscience-addled mind-set, Crake and Oryx reject all of humanistic art and thoughts whatsoever. Scientific reductionism involving Crake`s genetically modified animals contests his `brave new world` where GM animals like pigoons and wolvogs unexpectedly reveal their cruelty and violence to hurt and even kill humans. And a main character and narrator, Jimmy- Snowman`s position complicates the narrative of this novel. Jimmy countervails Crake`s ecological idealism as far as he is driven to reestablish such traditional humanitarian values as love, freedom, spiritualism, etc. `Words man` Jimmy-Snowman counterbalances the materialistic world-view of `numbers man` Crake. Entrapped in `zero hour,` however, Snowman suffers from aphasia which implies losing his sense of direction between humanitarianism and ecological idealism. Atwood not only demands readers to be alert of loosing the humanitarian values when Atwood obviously criticizes the limit of cutting-edge techno-scientific development and practice by presenting an eschatological disaster in the novel. But she also seems to show her eco-friendly position by contrasting humans` ecological vulnerability with nonhuman beings` wondrous adaptability to environmental change. Jimmy-Snowman better-reifies a between figure than any other character. (Chonnam University)
