A Test Case for the Kinsey Male

View through CrossRef
Max Eastman’s increasing conservatism does not lead to self-imposed restrictions on his love life. Among his lovers the young Creigh Collins, an aspiring poet and fellow devotee to physical pleasure, stands out. The Hitler-Stalin pact seals Max’s rejection of communist ideas and drives his advocacy for American involvement in World War II. In the protagonist of his long poem, Lot’s Wife (1942), heavily criticized by Edmund Wilson, Max paints a picture of the archetypal tyrant, Hitler and Stalin rolled into one terrifying package. To the consternation of his former leftist friends, Max joins Reader’s Digest as a “roving editor,” celebrating his new association with an essay on why socialism does not “jibe” with human nature. Buoyed by this new source of income, Max and Eliena build a home on Martha’s Vineyard.
