Men Without Women (Warbler Classics Annotated Edition) - Ernest Hemingway

Descriere Men Without Women (Warbler Classics Annotated Edition) - Ernest Hemingway

\nMen Without Women (1927), Ernest Hemingway's second collection of short stories, consists of fourteen tales that resonate with the compelling compactness and emotional force that characterizes his work. The Killers, a stark account of two Chicago gunmen and their potential victim, Hills Like White Elephants, the poignant dialogue of a couple contemplating an abortion, and In Another Country, which features an Italian major grappling with war injuries and the sudden loss of his wife, are considered some of Hemingway's finest short works. Other memorable figures populate these tales: among them Nick Adams (a familiar protagonist in Hemingway's stories and vignettes from the 1920s and 1930s) in Ten Indians; the renowned matador Manuel Garcia Maera in Banal Story; and the Stoic boxer Jack Brennan in Fifty Grand. From sports and sportsmanship, infidelity and divorce, war and death, to wrenching moments in relationships, these stories shy away from nothing and burn with enduring intensity. Stripped down yet profound, Men Without Women helped establish Hemingway as the premier American short story writer of his era. This Warbler Classics edition includes an extensive biographical timeline of Hemingway's life and work.\n
