"Nancy Drew herself is only identifiable as a Depression-Era archetype because she models a kind of bootstrapping spirit relevant to the decade but gratuitous to the booming, alternative universe in which she lives. This gung-ho spirit is also checked by other social factors, though, causing her to embody diverging understandings of feminine identity, ability, and power. As much as she is “a thrill-seeker” or “adrenaline junkie,” in the words of Caroline Reitz, a scholar at CUNY, she is also a paragon of domesticity, social conservatism, and virtuous womanhood. She may be a badass, but she’s construed as one through a paternalistic, constraining gaze, as always being slim, attractive, and neat—always being a “good girl.”
