Reviews
"Hemingway's language is fibrous and athletic, colloquial and fresh, hard and clean... he packs a whole character into a phrase, an entire situation into a sentence or two. He makes each word count three or four ways." -- The New York Times "There's something immortal about these short pieces. They are absolute miracles of prose, of description, of evocation. They take you there." --Edna O'Brien "Ernest Hemingway is a new, honest, un-literary transcriber of life - a Writer." -- Time

    early Hemingway

    95 years after it was published, the prose is compelling; wonderful in its clarity; copy is in excellent condition, no markings, not much wear.

    Hemingway's Literary star - when it was just beginning to glimmer....

    Why is this a 5 star product? IT'S HEMINGWAY!!! His first published book when he was just in his early 20's, living in Paris with his first wife Hadley. The book is dedicated to her.

    Some good, some not so good writing

    Proclaimed to be one of Hemingway's best published work, but I am disappointed in the book and Hemingway to that extent. I can't recommend it even though there are some very nice short stories in the book.
