HEMINGWAY - ERNEST (1899-1961) was an American author and
journalist whose economical and understated style had a strong influence on
20th-century fiction, while his life of adventure and public image influenced
later generations. He was awarded the 1954
Nobel Prize in Literature "for his mastery of the art of narrative, most
recently demonstrated in 'The Old Man and the Sea', and for the influence that
he has exerted on contemporary style."
During the twenties, Hemingway became a member of the group
of expatriate Americans in Paris, which he described in his first important
work, THE SUN ALSO RISES (1926). Equally
successful was A FAREWELL TO ARMS (1929), the study of an American ambulance
officer's disillusionment in the war and his role as a deserter. Hemingway used his experiences as a reporter
during the civil war in Spain as the background for his most ambitious novel,
FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS (1940). Among
his later works, the most outstanding is the short novel, THE OLD MAN AND THE
SEA (1952), the story of an old fisherman's journey, his long and lonely
struggle with a fish and the sea, and his victory in defeat.
Hemingway -- himself a great sportsman -- liked to portray
soldiers, hunters, bullfighters: tough, at times primitive people whose courage
and honesty are set against the brutal ways of modern society, and who in this
confrontation lose hope and faith. His
straightforward prose, his spare dialogue, and his predilection for
understatement are particularly effective in his short stories.
This collection features all of Hemingway's novels and short
stories, a large selection of his non-fiction (including several volumes of
journalism and letters), and a number of anthologies. Thanks to @anmisto for all your invaluable
