The Sun Also Rises: Vintage Classics

Autor Ernest Hemingway
Notă:  5.00 · o notă 
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 ian 2022
The debut novel from the Nobel Prize-winning author that is both a tragic love story and a searing group portrait of hapless American expatriates drinking, dancing, and chasing their dreams in postwar Europe.

“An absorbingly beautiful and tenderly absurd, heart-breaking narrative ... It is a truly gripping story.” —The New York Times

Ernest Hemingway, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954, exerted a lasting influence on fiction in English through his economical prose style that conceals more than it reveals. His first novel, published in 1926, is narrated by world-weary journalist Jake Barnes, who is burdened by a wound acquired in World War I and by his utterly hopeless love for the flamboyantly decadent Lady Brett Ashley. The Sun Also Rises tracks the Lost Generation of the 1920s from the nightclubs of Paris to the bullfighting arenas of Spain.

Notă biografică

Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) grew up in Illinois and came to Europe at the age of nineteen towards the end of World War I as an ambulance driver on the Italian front. Wounded by shrapnel after several months he was shipped home, but the war experience would shape his life and his fiction. In 1920, now married to the first of his four wives, he settled in Paris - already full of expatriate writers - and started to publish stories (In Our Time, 1925) and novels: The Sun Also Rises - published as Fiesta in Britain (1926); A Farewell to Arms (1929). He returned to America in 1928, where writing had to fit in between fishing and hunting trips. He was a journalist in Spain during the Civil War (inspiring For Whom the Bell Tolls), and afterwards set up home in Cuba with his third wife, fellow journalist Martha Gellhorn. In 1952 he published The Old Man and the Sea, his last major work of fiction. In increasingly bad physical health (exacerbated by alcoholism and depression), he left Cuba for Idaho (with wife number four) in 1960. He shot himself at their home the following year. Hemingway won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954; he is regarded as a leading modernist writer, known especially for his distinctive minimalist style.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
This new edition celebrates the art and craft of the quintessential story of the Lost Generation. Presented by the Hemingway family with supplementary material from the Hemingway Collection at the John F. Kennedy Library, this edition provides readers with wonderful insight regarding Hemingway's first great literary masterpiece.
"The Sun Also Rises" is a classic example of Hemingway's spare but powerful writing style. A poignant look at the disillusionment and angst of the post-World War I generation, the novel introduces two of Hemingway's most unforgettable characters: Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley. The story follows the flamboyant Brett and the hapless Jake as they journey from the wild nightlife of 1920s Paris to the brutal bullfighting rings of Spain with a motley group of expatriates. It is an age of moral bankruptcy, spiritual dissolution, unrealized love and vanishing illusions. First published in 1926, "The Sun Also Rises" is "an absorbing, beautifully and tenderly absurd, heartbreaking narrative...a truly gripping story, told in lean, hard, athletic prose" ("The New York Times").
This new Hemingway Library Edition celebrates Hemingway's classic novel with a personal foreword by Patrick Hemingway, the author's sole surviving son, and a new introduction by Sean Hemingway, grandson of the author. Hemingway considered the extensive rewriting that he did to shape his first novel the most difficult job of his life. Early drafts, deleted passages, and possible titles included in this new edition elucidate how the author achieved his first great literary masterpiece.
