dc.description.abstractThis research makes an intensive study of John Updike’sRabbit, Run. This novel shows the conflict between Desire and Responsibility of Harry “Rabbit” Angstrom, the protagonist. Rabbit, driven by instincts and impulses, gives too much importance to self-interest, neglecting the responsibilities to others. Rabbit goes to a prostitute, Ruth, for sexual gratification because he has grown disgusted with his wife, Janice, who is pregnant, alcoholic and smoker. Rabbit, who had the glorious past in his school days, now, leads a monotonous life. Rabbit runs away to avoid the monotonous life and revive the glorious past.en_US
