The Sun Also Rises (Bloom's Guides)Published in 1926, Ernest Hemingway's "The Sun Also Rises" quickly established the author as one of the great writers of his time. Based on Hemingway's experiences, "The Sun Also Rises" is the story of a group of American and English expatriates living in Paris who take an excursion to Pamplona, Spain. The novel has forever associated Hemingway with bullfights and the running of the bulls. This powerful work of modern fiction, filled with memorable characters and universal themes, is summarized in this volume and enhanced by thought-provoking critical extracts
This Literary Life tells the story of Hemingway the writer by
concentrating on four periods of his best work, shaped in part by study
of the correspondence between him and his four wives--and in the case
of Mary Welsh, his last wife, of her diary and her autobiography. Focus
falls on the Hadley Richardson period (In Our Time and The Sun Also Rises), the Pauline Pfeiffer years (A Farewell to Arms), the Martha Gellhorn period (For Whom the Bell Tolls) and the last (The Old Man and the Sea).
Ernest Hemingway. The Sun Also Rises
Published
in 1926 to explosive acclaim, The Sun Also Rises
stands as perhaps the most impressive first
novel ever written by an American writer. A roman à clef about a group of
American and English expatriates on an excursion from Paris’s Left Bank to
Pamplona for the July fiesta and its climactic bull fight, a journey from the
center of a civilization spirtually bankrupted by the First World War to a
vital, God-haunted world in which faith and honor have yet to lose their
currency, the novel captured for the generation that would come to be called “Lost”
the spirit of its age, and marked Ernest Hemingway as the preeminent writer of
his time.
