Reviews
"Some of the finest and most restrained writing that this generation has produced." -- New York World, An elegy for the loss of innocence, of religion, of our old comforting myths... While every generation has its novel about dissipated young people drinking and drugging, the reason this book has survived is that it is a fundamentally philosophical work.

Synopsis
Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read. This new edition of The Sun Also Rises celebrates the art and craft of Hemingway's quintessential story of the Lost Generation--presented by the Hemingway family with illuminating supplementary material from the Hemingway Collection at the John F. Kennedy Library. 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., The only authorized edition of Ernest Hemingway ' s first novel. "The ideal companion for troubled times: equal parts Continental escape and serious grappling with the question of what it means to be, and feel, lost." -- The Wall Street Journal The Sun Also Rises is a classic example of Hemingway's spare but powerful writing style.

- r***a (114)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseI always want to give independent sellers the bigger benefit of doubt and lenience so I write this kindly, though honestly. Seller made efforts to wrap the book with care but it did deliver very, very bent. I’m going to assume it was an issue of shipping and handling. Seller was responsive when outreached, which is a plus. Price was great so I’m not going to be precious about the damage which, likely wasn’t seller’s fault, but the book did arrive in less than the condition listed.The Passion by Jeanette Winterson (1997, Trade Paperback) (#285321071061)
