The Torrents of Spring - Ernest Hemingway

Descriere The Torrents of Spring - Ernest Hemingway

First published in 1926--and out of print for several years--The Torrents of Spring is not only a rare and invaluable example of Hemingway's early writings, but a wonderfully entertaining novel. \nAn early gem of satire and humor from the greatest American writer of the twentieth century. \nFirst published in 1926, The Torrents of Spring is a hilarious parody of the Chicago school of literature. Poking fun at that great race of writers, it depicts a vogue that Hemingway himself refused to follow. In style and substance, The Torrents of Spring is a burlesque of Sherwood Anderson's Dark Laughter, but in the course of the narrative, other literary tendencies associated with American and British writers akin to Anderson--such as D. H. Lawrence, James Joyce, and John Dos Passos--come in for satirical comment. A highly entertaining story, The Torrents of Spring offers a rare glimpse into Hemingway's early career as a storyteller and stylist.\n
