Though traditional readings of Oryx and Crake emphasize the novel’s critique of capitalist science, this essay demonstrates the ways in which the novel criticizes ecotopianism. By critiquing both capitalist science and ecotopianism, Oryx and Crake highlights the complexity of knowledge production and cautions the reader against sweeping plans for the elimination of suffering, regardless of whether those plans are driven by economics, science, or environmentalism
