Synopsis"Finally, the first of Norton's long-awaited treatments of Ernest Hemingway, the American who, more than anyone, changed the look and sound of modern American prose. Academic rigor and impeccable attention to detail are the hallmarks of the Norton Critical Edition, and this volume on The Sun Also Rises is no exception. In addition to the usual suspects of contemporary reviews and early criticism, this volume draws on an exceptional pool of resources and ancillary material to tell this novel's story: biographical excerpts from the likes of Sylvia Beach and Harold Loeb, original expurgated text, epistolary exchanges with Max Perkins and F. Scott Fitzgerald, and hefty segments on expatriation, the bullfights, and Hemingway's own literary influences. Add to this a generous sampling of new, exceptional criticism that speaks to a modern audience about issues of gender and sexuality and about race, and a wonderful, spirited introduction, and this critical edition edited by Michael Thurston becomes the definitive edition of Hemingway's star-making novel and a necessary comprehensive guide for both teachers and students." --Marc Dudley, North Carolina State University, This Norton Critical Edition includes: The text of Ernest Hemingway's best-known novel. Introduction and explanatory footnotes by Michael Thurston. A rich selection of background and contextual materials carefully chosen to enhance the reader's understanding of and appreciation for Hemingway's prose style and his famous 1926 novel. Topics include "Biographical and Autobiographical Background," "Composition and Revision," "Letters," "On Postwar Paris and Expatriates," "On Bullfighting," and "Literary Influences." Six major early reviews and ten recent critical essays. A chronology of Ernest Hemingway's life and work and a selected bibliography. About the Series Read by more than 12 million students over fifty-five years, Norton Critical Editions set the standard for apparatus that is right for undergraduate readers. The three-part format--annotated text, contexts, and criticism--helps students to better understand, analyze, and appreciate the literature, while opening a wide range of teaching possibilities for instructors. Whether in print or in digital format, Norton Critical Editions provide all the resources students need. "This edition of The Sun Also Rises is to be celebrated. Michael Thurston has assembled materials so today's readers will appreciate the drama of the novel's composition, its reception and critical legacy, and its historical context making Hemingway's genius feel fresh and vital."--Mark Cirino, University of Evansville
