Description

The Sun Also Rises, the first novel by Ernest Hemingway, is a poignant look at the disillusionment and angst of the post-World War I generation. This edition, part of the Hemingway Library series, features a personal foreword by Patrick Hemingway, the author's sole surviving son, and an introduction by Sean Hemingway, grandson of the author.

Published in 1926, the novel introduces two of Hemingway's most unforgettable characters: Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley. The story follows their journey from the wild nightlife of 1920s Paris to the brutal bullfighting rings of Spain with a motley group of expatriates. This new edition includes early drafts, deleted passages, and possible titles, offering a unique insight into how Hemingway achieved his first great literary masterpiece.

With its lean, hard prose and beautifully absurd narrative, The Sun Also Rises is a gripping story that explores the moral bankruptcy, spiritual dissolution, and unrealized love of its characters. a worthwhile read for anyone interested in Hemingway's work, this edition is a valuable companion for troubled times.
